The goal of this PR is always the same of #29517 and #29556: Make frontend and backend look similar by default.

The way we achieve that is that we should empty the "editor-styles.scss" because this file applies styles the backend that the them don't necessarily have. So our options are something like:

1- Remove these styles.
2- Apply these styles to both frontend and backend by default
3- Only apply these styles in both frontend and backend if the theme opt-into the opinionated theme styles.

The current implementation in this PR does 3 (moves the default heading styles from editor-styles to theme.scss), This can be impactful for themes with the opt-in true. I'm not sure yet if this is the best approach or we should go with "1" instead. Let's test in some themes and gather opinions.

Edit: Found a better solution explained here #29588 (comment)

Love this. I'd love @kjellr thoughts on it, but I think it's time.

revert is new to me! Nice!

I changed my mind :) and found a better fix IMO.

This fix uses the "revert" value to override the wp-admin styles for headings and "revert" to the browser defaults for these styles unless a theme provides its own editor styles which are going to be higher specificity.

I think this is the ultimate fix :P I'm tempted to use that for all the other things in the editor-styles.scss file (I'll do separately if this works well).

Revert is supported in 87% of the browsers and probably something like 95% of the browsers we actually support. I think it's fine because what will happen if the browser doesn't support it is just that the editor won't look exactly like the frontend by default, so I think it's a good progressive enhancements strategy.

I'd love some testing in various themes for this PR.

Yeah my concern with the previous suggestion is that it wouldn't work if the theme opted out of block styles, because of this issue: #29252

@youknowriad

If this proves to be good solution I'll update the list PR to do the same.

In "empty theme" the margins look different. Editor:

Front end:

I suppose this is because somewhere in the context a different base is being set, but I couldn't find where.

I suppose this is because somewhere in the context a different base is being set, but I couldn't find where.

I think it might be because of the default block margins applied to all blocks in the editor but I'll confirm.

@scruffian

The margins are exactly the same value in ems in the inspector, it's just that the browser is displaying an em at different sizes.

@scruffian

Actually it's not the margins at all it's the line-height, which is coming from this line:

line-height: $editor-line-height;

@scruffian

Changing to line-height: initial fixes it.

Actually it's not the margins at all it's the line-height, which is coming from this line:

yes, the problem with that thing is that we will not be able to "revert it" because the "body" styles from wp-admin will still apply since it's a parent for headings, so it will be inherited, what we need to do there is to actually set a default line height that is equal to the browser one.

Changing to line-height: initial fixes it.

yes, that's a good fix but I'll leave all the "body" things for later (to be edited in one go)

@scruffian #29590 this PR builds on top of the current one and applies bigger changes to the wrapper, lists and paragraphs. I mostly wanted to "validate" the approach and probably land it in smaller pieces starting with the current one for headings.

@youknowriad

Ok let's close in favor of #29590 which is more ambitious but better.
