Comment (by sabernhardt):

 I would add styles in the `wp-includes/theme-compat/header.php` template
 such as:
 {{{
 <style>
 :where(#header, #footer) {
         padding-left: 5%;
         padding-right: 5%;
 }
 </style>
 }}}

 - The `:where()` specificity makes it easier for themes to override the
 style, especially if it only edits the padding (instead of **both**
 `margin` and a `width` or `max-width`).
 - Classic themes have required their own header and footer PHP templates
 for many years. As a result, almost every time someone gets the markup
 from the `theme-compat` fallback now should involve these multisite pages
 with a block theme (and those hopefully would use templates from the theme
 soon).

 If the styles are updated before the real fix can be completed, I would
 also like to make several [https://github.com/sabernhardt/wordpress-
 develop/pull/36/files changes to the markup]. That PR on my fork seems
 about ready to move it to the main `wordpress-develop` repository for
 discussion and review. (Should I connect it to this ticket?)

 New body classes should not be necessary for this CSS, but they could help
 on #43536.
