Comment:

 Hey @laurelfulford – I gave this a spin following the above steps, and
 didn't come up against any issues. It's good to go from me, and will make
 it as such.

 > It's important to note that this wide image style is not previewed in
 the editor -- adding checks for the image width there seems like it could
 turn into a bit of a mess, and beyond what a theme should be doing. Does
 this seem like enough of an issue not to add this behaviour? I’m leaning
 towards no, because the wide images also don’t preview in the classic
 editor, and this will make the image blocks behave more consistently with
 existing content in Twenty Sixteen. I’m interested to know what other
 people think, though!

 I agree with your thinking here. I'm not sure there would be an easy way
 to make that work without creating a mess of code. That's a case where
 this is an older theme, and that's okay it doesn't preview exactly the
 right way. If Twenty Sixteen launched today, it wouldn't have that
 functionality, but instead leave it up to the user to control it with wide
 images.
