should i open a new ticket about Toolset Blocks plugin issues on the new Admin Widgets blocks editor?
my client want to use the blocks editor, so i'm asking if Toolset Blocks plugin is not yet fully developed to work in the widgets block editor - and i should develop my own solutions for the widgets block editor.
or is it just a bug that the toolset developers should look into?
can toolset blocks 1.6.3 work with wp 6.0.1 widgets block editor (just as it works on regular blocks editor)?
since there is an open known issue with Toolset Blocks plugin and the New Widgets Blocks editor, i've come up with a work around solution:
using a content template to wrap all content of widget area, using the blocks editor (working as expected for content template editing with blocks)
in widgets block editor add the toolset content template block with the newly created widget blocks wrapper template.
is this work around is ok performance wise,
what are the con's using a content template as a wrapper?

For the new questions:
Q1) is this work around is ok performance wise,
As you can see, in the plugin description of "Classic Widgets":
https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-widgets/
Classic Widgets is an official plugin maintained by the WordPress team that restores the previous (“classic”) WordPress widgets settings screens. It will be supported and maintained until at least 2022, or as long as is necessary.
So I think it is wise to use this plugin.
Q2) what are the con's using a content template as a wrapper?
What is the "con's" are we talking about?
Please elaborate the question with more details?
How and where do you want to use "content template as a wrapper"?
- How and where do you want to use "content template as a wrapper"?
inside a widget, using the WBE (Widgets Block Editor) for footer and header widgets areas.
since there are some issues with several toolset blocks in the WBE ->
i create a content template block for each widget area,
and use the content template Block Editor ( works with all blocks) to insert toolset blocks properly to each one of the Content temp'.
this way my client can still interact and control the widgets areas with the Blocks UI.
is this description explained my use case and question?
