Using components with a slot element in the block editor, makes the slot unusable. Possibly a feature request? Anyway, it would be amazing to have those available.

Hi,
Thanks so much for your report!
Yes, that’s a current limitation. There are already threads asking for this, so I’ll close this one:
Currently, component slots only work inside the Bricks builder, but not in Gutenberg (tested in 2.2-RC2).
This makes it difficult to build nestable, client-editable components when content editing happens in Gutenberg instead of Bricks.
Examples that are currently hard or impossible to implement cleanly:
Accordions with multiple items
Nested lists
Tabs
FAQs
Icon lists
Any repeatable child structure inside a component
Slots solve this problem for developers inside Bricks, but since they are …
Are Slots/Innerblocks coming to the Gutenberg Side? What about inline editing?
Gutenbricks has these features, so should be achievable? Is it on the agenda?
Best regards,
timmse
