Anyone tried creating a custom view for the entirely block list? Umbraco allows setting a custom view for each block, which isn't sufficient in my case. So I'm looking for if there is a way to add a custom view for the entire block list. IIRC Umbraco advertised that this would be possible, but I haven't seen anyone doing this. And when I look at Umbraco source code, it seems that I have to rewrite a lot of code to make this happen instead of inheriting Umbraco's existing Angular code for the block list. My goal is to create a custom map editor where each block then is a shape on the map. Currently I'm on Umbraco 10, but I think this is the same for U11 and U12.

I've thought about this for my BlockPreview package but never dug into enough to figure out an answer! There are sites I build where blocks interact with each other based on position/overlap and I'd love to be able to see that when building. You'd have to replace the entire property editor with a custom one, might be easier with v14

I got as far as replacing the view (hacky solution), but then realized some of the functions that I needed from Umbraco's controller/directive are private, so I can't call them from the view or my own controller.
