Comment (by zodiac1978):

 >  Agreed and that's what's happening with this patch.

 Yes, but with all the comment markup for the blocks. Which is risky to
 edit. I wouldn't want to edit this code manually. I just want to see my
 markup instead of visual presentation in my blocks if I checked the box -
 at least this would be my interpretation.

 >  I expect the Gutenberg editor to show the HTML markup in the current
 editor of WordPress which is Gutenberg in 5.0

 That's exactly what I say: Show me the markup, like after I switched on
 the "Edit as HTML" feature.

 > That's a decision that has already been made in Gutenberg and that is
 independent from this patch. When you are in the Code editor of Gutenberg
 (regardless of the option in the user profile), you can't add blocks.

 I wouldn't show the code editor in the first place. Just show me the
 blocks, but with the "Edit as HTML" option enabled. Problem solved.

 > Did you try the patch?

 Yes, sort of, like I wrote in
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/45375#comment:12 I updated to
 Gutenberg 4.5.1 which showed me the new behavior.

 > We can still iterate on that but it's better to open a GitHub issue for
 that.

 Like I wrote above, if I need to open a Github issue for it I will do
 this. Obviously Github is still the place to discuss things instead of
 Trac. Confusing, but now I know. Thanks.
