 As you know Gutenberg gives you the option to edit blocks as html.

 It also gives an entire code editor option where you can modify or add
 your own code.

 The issue with these options are that they are underdeveloped, raw and
 plain.(You basically just type your code as text)

 Enhancement: My recommendation is to add highlighting and autocomplete for
 code written in the WordPress enviroment. Yes, making gutenberg visual
 builder the main player is ok but code editing for advanced users is a
 must.
