-------------------------+-----------------------------
 Pattern Editing and Content-Only Interactivity is a significant change to
 how patterns behave in the WordPress editor, arriving in WordPress 7.0.

 Unsynced patterns and template parts inserted into the editor now default
 to contentOnly mode, prioritizing the editing of text and media without
 exposing the deeper block structure or style controls.

 The goal of content-only mode is to separate what content a user edits
 from how a pattern is structured. With this change, patterns behave more
 like intentional design components: users can update the content they're
 supposed to update, and the underlying structure stays protected unless
 explicitly opened for editing.

 See the original issue for the context and motivation:
 - [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/71517 Pattern Editing and
 contentOnly interactivity]

 This trac ticket serves as a record of this feature's introduction into
 Core, with a target release of WordPress 7.0.

 As part of the beta phase, this feature will receive improvements as
 testing continues.

 Individual bug fixes and enhancements are tracked in
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/73775 WordPress 7.0:
 iteration issue for Pattern Editing and contentOnly interactivity]

 Feedback and testing welcome.
