Changes (by peterwilsoncc):

 * milestone:  5.1 => Future Release


Comment:

 There are a few things I see needed for this to go forward:

 * Hiding the appropriate UI element for users failing the `create_post` or
 `edit_post` meta caps
 * Removing the option to insert shared blocks for users blocked from
 reading them (in the dropdown, via a slash command and anywhere else I
 have forgotten)
 * Removing the menu should be handled by core already
 * Decisions about which core roles should be able to publish a shared post
 if that needs to be different to the rules for posts and pages
 * What happens for users who can create posts but not publish them when
 they attempt to create a post from within the authoring UI. IE, is the
 content duplicated, an unpublished post inserted into their current post
 or 🤷🏻‍♂️

 It's the eleventh hour for the 5.1 release. As there's a fair amount to
 consider, I'm moving this to future release.
