[julian-stark]

Description

I save a GenerateBlock design as a reusable block and import it into the pages via a custom ACF Block (not via the usual reusable block block). All blocks are rendering correctly in the frontend but GB blocks are not styled in the block editor.

Steps for testing

1. You find the code for testing here: https://github.com/julian-stark/dynamic-reusable-block/tree/gb-block-editor-testing/stark-dynamic-template
2. Install ACF Pro
3. Save a GB based reusable block and import it into a page.
4. Check how the styling of the reusable block looks inside the block editor.

I will create a staging environment with the testing setup for you if you like.
