 * Notice: wp_enqueue_script() was called **incorrectly**. “wp-editor” script should
   not be enqueued together with the new widgets editor (wp-edit-widgets or wp-customize-
   widgets). Please see [Debugging in WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/)
   for more information. (This message was added in version 5.8.0.) in C:\wamp64\
   www\website-name\wp-includes\functions.php on line 5663
 * This error is displaying on the new widgets block editor page since update of
   the WordPress core to 5.8, I have found workarounds to either suppress the error
   message or revert to the older widget editor.
 * Just wondering if you are going to release an official fix 🙂
