 The following screen shots are from the Twenty Seventeen theme. Behavior
 in the editor was the same in the Twenty Nineteen theme. All plugins are
 inactive.

 ----

 img A shows the tree structure of the blocks in this test post.

 img B shows an active text block with the add-block plus symbol in a
 circle. It appears with hover, but move arrows do not appear with any
 amount of pointer hover. (demonstrating that the hover function for the
 editor works).

 img C shows two highlighted blocks. Click/drag cursor over two blocks to
 highlight. Or shift/click to highlight. Curiously, ctrl/click does not
 highlight. Arrows appear, and they do work. But there is no handle to
 drag. (The arrows appear without any hover interaction.)
 img D shows the text in a **''column''** highlighted with no arrows.

 img E shows the entire column highlighted with arrows showing, but the
 arrows do not work.

 img F shows the column block and a text box highlighted, showing arrows
 that do work.

 Hopefully it's enough info without being too much.

 updated to WP5.0 having no idea of the rabbit hole leading to Wonderland!
 I do want to express that I do like the new block system!
