Comment (by jorgefilipecosta):

 Hi, I submitted an alternative patch.

 When a meta box is found and does not support the block editor, we
 continue to use the block editor but we show a fake meta box saying the
 meta box that was supposed to be there.

 This is the first step, later we may implement the version proposed by
 @pento where we add a button linking to classic editor and we track in
 which cases we should open the classic editor.
 The user is able to use the options menu to hide the "placeholder" meta
 box.

 Any feedback is welcome.
