Comment:

 Let's revisit this ticket to continue iterating after the initial
 adjustments in #38426 are resolved, then. The primary necessary changes in
 that patch (for code and UX standards and due to integration with other
 changes) are:
 - Making the code DRY
 - Adding selective refresh support (+ visual edit icons, with #27403)
 - Restructuring the controls into a single section, as sections are
 intended to group multiple related controls. That also takes care of the
 layout option that's completely unrelated to this.

 It also contains adjustments to the communications between the controls
 and the preview that are necessary as a part of the above points; this is
 the area with the most potential for finding a middle ground and includes
 things like the border highlights.
