 * Hi, I’ve been testing out your plugin, and have noticed that all the plugin CSS
   loads in one file which is 97Kb.
 * Will it be possible in future to enable blocks selectively, so CSS is not loaded
   for blocks that aren’t being used?
 * Following on, will there be a setting to disable CSS so that you can add any 
   relevant styles to your own theme stylesheet?

 * [@abrightclearweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/abrightclearweb/) this
   is something we’re working on now and will continue to work on in the coming 
   months. We have a fix coming in version 2.0.1 that will reduce the amount of 
   CSS by a pretty good amount. Keep an eye out for that. We’re aiming to launch
   that next week I think.

 * Hi John,
 * +1 to that. Your plugin looks great! So would have loved to be able to have used
   the Container block to make reuseable page sections. But since I can’t disable
   the other blocks and will get all of the CSS for the other blocks loaded, it 
   doesn’t work for me. So I’ll stick with the native Gutenberg block function and
   just create multiple reuseable blocks with the built-in functions.
 * Also I read that the CSS is loaded even when no atomic Blocks are used.
 * So really hope you’ll update this ticket when you add a feature to selectively
   choose what features you load and not load CSS unnecessarily.
