This supersedes #24551 for tracking upcoming tasks around the main site editing projects. There are a few separate tracking issues for covering some general improvements and then some broader projects:

Template Editor

The template editor is what powers editing wp_template entries and files.

Patterns

From directory browsing to placeholder setup to transformations, patterns are crucial component of the entire site editing scope and the planned improvements are outlined here.

Styling

Includes the global styles project, design tools in specific site editing blocks, and any further work around theme integration (palettes, gradients, content width, etc).

Navigation Block

Editing a site's navigation menu, both in terms of structure and design.

Do I understand correctly that this scope does not include a plan for allowing block themes to work without Gutenberg even in 5.9?
And I mean block themes not "site editor".

They will work once the remaining infrastructure pieces and dependencies (missing blocks) are included even without the theme editor.

The theme editor is what WordPress calls the built in file editor in the WordPress admin area,. Please help me understand what part that editor plays in whether or not a block theme/ full site editing theme can be activated.

Sorry, I was using "theme editor" to mean "site editor" in the above (the block editor that is able to edit all templates of a theme). The current built in file editor would still be there for any kind of theme, though it remains to be seen if it's de-emphasized in the block theme case given you still hace access to all files, provided it's not mixing php files with html templates.
