 Over the past several years,
 [https://www.figma.com/design/804HN2REV2iap2ytjRQ055/WordPress-Design-
 System?node-id=2799-26256&m=dev the WordPress design system] has been
 updated quite a bit. All these new design choices have been implemented in
 the block editor first using the @wordpress/components design system as
 the source of truth.

 Whilst the eventual goal is to actually leverage that react component
 library to also power all of the admin interfaces, a first step would be
 to realign the styling applied to the individual components.

 This is a larger effort and, therefore, best broken up into several small
 incremental updates.

 To start, I would suggest we look at the button & form elements. I tried
 to handle them in isolation, but there are so many places where buttons
 render next to select elements, for example, that they really need to be
 handled at the same time.
