Comment (by celloexpressions):
Perhaps it would help to think outside the box a bit more; for example,
what if the core UI was moved out of separate boxes and integrated into
the editor where that could make sense?
I know @melchoyce had some mockups a long time ago that showed categories
and tags in a bar below the editor, and even the publish buttons
integrated there. In terms of UX, hiding everything by default seems to
solve the problem of too much visual clutter, but it steps around the
underlying issue that the UI is perhaps a bit too verbose. Do we need
separate boxes for categories, tags, featured image, etc. in the first
place or could they be integrated into a more unified UI (whatever that
might look like)?
