Classic editor fails to load in Visual

[bobbingwide]

With the current version of Gutenberg ( 2.0.0 ), the action hook enqueue_block_assets is invoked even when using the Classic editor. This invokes jsforwpblocks_scripts() which enqueues the React Javascript which is incompatible with the Classic editor's TinyMCE. This results in TinyMCE failing to load.

I raised this in WordPress/gutenberg#4672 (comment)
Now I understand it better I'm considering whether or not to raise a separate issue on Gutenberg.

I did raise a separate issue. It is WordPress/gutenberg#4678 and I'm working on a PR to fix it WordPress/gutenberg#4693

Hey @bobbingwide interesting notes. Do you know if this was resolved?

[bobbingwide]

No, I don't think it has been fixed yet. Perhaps we can talk about this at #wcldn Contributor day.

Items to address...

1. To determine if I'm the only person who has this problem.
2. To check if my proposed solution actually makes sense.
   See Enqueue editor and block scripts only when necessary bobbingwide/oik-block#8
3. If not, to determine what is necessary.
4. To take see if the changes to the PHP register_block_type()'s $args parameter
   makes it easier to safely register scripts and styles, without having to hook into the actions.
5. And if so, to determine the best way to change the code and build processes to support this mechanism.
