I'm thinking we should add some tests for this selector. |

Do we explicitly provide "" as a settingsRootClientId in the post editor today or do we leave that to the block-editor's algorithm?

As @wordpress/editor provides the setting, today Site and Post Editors would use the algorithm that looks for main.
However, if the rendering mode is template-locked (like when you are editing a Page in the Site Editor) then the default would be '' (empty string).
I think the question is here

Main main question is about "performance". In other words, it seems unnecessary to run the fallback for post and page editors in "post-only" mode (not template-locked), for template-locked, I suspect that we already have something that sets the "post-content" block as section root.

I see what you mean. If we are in Post Editor (Posts or Pages or whatever) we are in post-only mode. Therefore we're going to be looking for a main tag which is very unlikely to exist.
Yes maybe I need to do some more digging to find where these editors end up with '' as the sectionRootClientId.

What?
Adds a WordPress-agnostic default algorithm for determining "section root" in the block editor.
Continues to allow override via setting.
Why?
Currently if the setting that provides the
sectionRootClientIdis not provided then the editor experience in "Zoom Out" is quite degraded. You just end up with the root block selectable and nothing else.By providing a default algorithm that is WordPress agnostic, we allow this block editor based feature to function "standalone" whilst still allow for WordPress to provide its own algorithm as required.
How?
