I really want to like Gutenberg. Every couple months I update the plugin and give it a try. With all the talk of prompting its installation with 4.9.5, I tried it out again over the weekend. It was a disaster with most of the pages in my dev site, so I had to deactivate it again.

This can be a real mess when clients start turning it on and breaking things. And I really dislike how the current editor is gone. I have a number of pages that are better off without Gutenberg, and some are even best edited in text and NOT the visual editor. I think it's really bad to force this new experiment on people. Give us the OPTION of using the Gutenberg editor alongside other editors, like how many page builder plugins do.

Just my 2 cents.
