Comment (by kjellr):

 Since posting above, we realized this callout is meant to highlight the
 classic editor plugin as well. Here are a few ideas for how we could
 approach this, depending on how prominent we want the classic editor
 messaging to be:


 ----

 1. Keep things largely the same, but rework the classic editor statement
 on the include a text link for the plugin. This direction works if we like
 the overall direction and wording of the callout currently, but we want to
 subtly let people know that the classic editor plugin exists.

 2. If we'd like the classic editor link to be more prominent, we could add
 a second layer/section to the callout. Perhaps something like this:

 This direction makes sense if we want to maintain "Try Gutenberg" as the
 primary message, but we'd also like to alert people to the fact that they
 can also install the classic editor plugin to prepare for Gutenberg's
 launch.

 ----

 3. Alternatively, we could shift the hierarchy around more substantially.
 In this version, the callout first introduces you to the editor, then has
 dual sections to promote testing (via the Gutenberg plugin) and
 preparation (via the classic editor plugin). I think this dilutes the
 message somewhat, but if this is the best place for us to highlight both
 plugins, this would do that.

 In all of those cases, I'd like to have someone review (and improve!) the
 new copy. But in the meantime, I'd love to settle on a general direction.
