Comment:

 It seems pretty clear that content blocks as a unified abstraction of
 widgets, nav menus, and shortcodes is a key priority for 2017 both for the
 editor and the customizer. I think we need feature project kickoff to
 start getting design direction and pull together the existing development
 efforts including the Shortcake and JS Widgets plugins.
