Comment (by zodiac1978):

 I'v tested this with Gutenberg 4.5.1 - works for me.

 Much better than disabling the new block editor completely. 👍

 But ...
 > The idea is that it just disables the visual editor of Gutenberg. you
 don't fallback to the code editor of the classic editor. You stay in
 Gutenberg but within the code editor.

 I don't see any chance to switch to the visual editor (besides unchecking
 the box in settings  again). Imagining the onboarding process, this seems
 to be a problem too. User would see the Gutenberg UI, but there is no way
 to convert Classic to Blocks now.

 People could think this is it, or not? Is this intended? Should we better
 add a notice?

 Wouldn't it be better to turn on the code editor in the classic block and
 the "Edit as HTML"-option for every block in this case? This would be for
 the people who want to see the code instead of the visual presentation, or
 not?
