Comment (by davelo):

 Hi, is there any news of feedback around this ticket?
 We have immensive problems with disappearing reusable blocks.
 The workflow around reusable blocks since 5.7 is really become very
 unpleasant.

 Now, i noticed the following:
 - i remove a reusable block from a page
 - i come back to the page, do some edits; saves it and the page "asks' if
 i want to save the resuable block; yes; that same resuable block which was
 removed before.
 - looking in the code editor; i see some leftovers like this: <!--
 wp:block {"ref":20341} /--> i found that code at the bottom of the page;
 which was not in the place where the reusable block was placed originally.



 And i think this is the big issue.
 Because of the "leftover"-reusable code-tags; the reusable blocks are
 getting overwritten with ... nothing. In other word: the reusable block is
 gone; and there are no revisions; and a backup doesn't solve the issues, i
 just creates a loop for the issue to come back.

 A critical issue, i believe.
