Description

I have a question about future policy.

Previously, styles for blocks had high Specificity, so to override them, the CSS loaded in the theme was loaded later than "wp-block-library-css".

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
	// wp-block-library
	wp_enqueue_style( 'wp-block-library' );

	// styles of my theme
	wp_enqueue_style( 'theme-style', '.../style.css' );
} );

However, over the past few years, with each update, the selector has been adjusted.

Even in this 6.4 release, some code had the level of Specificity lowered from 0-2-0 to 0-0-0.

/* 6.3 */
.wp-block-preformatted.has-background {
    padding: 1.25em 2.375em;
}

/* 6.4 */
:where(.wp-block-preformatted.has-background) {
    padding: 1.25em 2.375em;
}

This made it lose out to the reset css in the theme.

/* reset css in theme */
* {
    padding: 0;
}

The p.has-background etc. still seemed to be intact, but do you plan to lower their Specificity level to 0 in the future as well?

If so, then you will need to make a major revision to the CSS loaded in your theme and plugins.
