ckeditor
Content class support so you can use a CSS class to wrap both your content and ckeditor in
We use a class called content-scope (but for example could be just some resetting class) for styling all the content ckeditor creates. The idea is that we don't want to have a bunch of classes looking for ck-editor__editable. Instead we just want to use the same class so we have a consistent match for accurate WYSIWYG.
Once again we have hacked around this ourselves.

Would be nice to simpy be able to pass in a class for this spot. That hack I have only used on the classic editor so don't know how it will hold up in other builds.
If you'd like to see this feature implemented, add a 👍 reaction to this post.
Hi, @robclancy!
Thank you for the idea. As for:
Once again we have hacked around this ourselves.
To be frank, it's not a hack. We recommend this approach in our FAQ and it will work in all editor builds.
In theory, we could create a configuration option (<String>|Object.<String,String> for single/multi root editors) but I'm not sure how many people would actually use this.

I agree that it's not a hack. You used editor API to achieve exactly the thing that you wanted. Not everything can be done with configuration for many reasons. First reason would be that CKEditor 4 tried to do everything with configuration and it has around 200 config options AFAIR and many things are still not possible. And it's still a simpler case than doing the same in CKEditor 5 where we have many more editor types.
Anyway, I can confirm this as a potential feature and let's gather some feedback.
PS. This is a very similar case to setting the editor height/width which is also not possible via the config.
I used a private thing in what I did, which makes it a hack imo. view._editingView. And to add this class I had to dig deep into the code to find out how to do it, it wasn't something documented for what I did. Which makes me feel like there is a simpler way to do this (the FAQ link is a bit different and doesn't use something private, so there is probably something there I should be doing instead?).

Nah we gave up on CKEditor, just using our hacks for this. Can’t wait to move away and stop spending so much.

Confirmed moving away so not spending thousands a year on something without some basic apis.
