Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 We recently split a high profile marketing page with a very tight deadline
 (buzz words!) for the university into 15 "sections" (panels) that we then
 combine into a single front page via shortcode. Very quick/dirty to solve
 a workflow problem. But!

 It was great to witness the immediate benefit of having a team of several
 writers and editors be able to bounce around between sections at the same
 time and build out this overall page without stepping on toes. It's
 probably the closest we've come so far to providing an experience similar
 (that's a stretch) to a collaborative workflow through Google Docs.

 I have no answers or big opinions, but I'm happy to see this being worked
 on. :)

 I will note that we used pages for this and titled them as "Section -
 _____" so that we could keep track. This enabled us to have our page
 builder and other custom tools available for use on each of the individual
 sections.

 There are probably many ways to solve this, but I think either using an
 existing post type or creating a new one is a good idea to start with.
