Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
In Views usability testing we uncovered a disconnect in the workflow of adding a block, as you have to create the block display, then save, then go out to the Blocks UI.
This is related to #1836394: Add “place block in region’ to the Blocks settings in Views UI.

tim.plunkettThis would likely be easier to accomplish after #1836394: Add “place block in region’ to the Blocks settings in Views UI, though either issue could add the underlying plumbing. Going to post some other concerns and questions on that issue.

Also think this new feature will require tests.
