 Footer element is affected by global block style (in twenty-three-theme,
 as probably the most others site edit gutenberg themes)


 {{{
 .wp-site-blocks > * + * {
     margin-block-start: 1.5rem;
 }
 }}}


 but the footer element itself do not have option to change margin. So the
 only way how anyone can change/delete this margin is to add the extra
 definition for footer to the stylesheet, what is somehow against the
 gutenberg principes IMO.

 the same is for header element, but there is no default margin (as this
 css one affect all but the first one), but i guess if there would be a
 change for footer block, it should be for header as well

 It is a problem when you got different background for the last block
 before the footer - it creates a white 1.5rem wide line between this block
 and footer, so maybe it should be omited for footer by default anyway
