 I’ve re-reviewed the Gutenberg support that added in #45044, primarily to
 find anything that might have been missed, but also make sure none of the
 other changes happening during 5.0 development so far created a need for
 theme updates, too.

 I opted to combine my findings per theme into one ticket, since many of
 the issues showed up in more than one of the default themes — it seemed
 like it would make it easier to review and commit these fixes, given the
 timeline.

 In Twenty Sixteen, I found these issues:

 1. Centred widget lists (Categories, Archives…) need to have the text
 centred, like the editor.
 2. When you centre the Cover block, the styles get messed up, with the
 text sitting at the top, and behind the overlay.
 3. The placeholder text uses the right font, but it’s inheriting a too-
 dark colour that makes it look less than placeholder-y.
 4. The cover blocks need to have their styles updated to add the newer non
 `-image-` variations of the cover block classes (`.wp-block-cover` and
 `.wp-block-cover-text`)
 5.  The Media & Text block does not have spacing underneath it.
 6. Editor width selectors can be simplified to just use `wp-block` in
 Gutenberg 4.2 RC 1.
 7. The `margin` styles being pulled in from the theme’s original editor
 styles are causing the content in Gutenberg to list to the left. This is
 new in Gutenberg’s 4.2 RC 1 as well.
