@talldan @youknowriad @Mamaduka pinging you in the context of you all having been involved in Mark applying block templates not persistent ( #45843 ): it seems we hit another problem with the way templates have been built to work. But this time it's not fixable, it's more of a question about what we want to do with block templates: it this a feature that should allow on the fly editing and applying via attribute and state changes, or is is something that is supposed to be synced once and then forgotten about? The question comes in the context of Pages List block implementing both inner blocks and the ability to filter the inner blocks via an attribute. We added inner blocks by making a block template b/c these inner blocks are not something editable, but automattic. But when we filter the blocks and reapply the template

@draganescu templates work hand in hand with "locking". If you want the template to keep being applied, I believe the locking should be "all" or something like that. |

Does it still make sense to keep the changes introduced in #45843? |

What?
Alternative to #46122
This PR fixes a bug that appeared when merging #45861 and #45776 into trunk.
This has revealed that setting a template on inner blocks is not the right approach here. Instead we should use replaceBlocks, so avoid issues with template syncing.
Why?
To fix a bug where parent page selection is not reflected in the editor, but takes effect when the page list block is rendered.
Changes the implementation of the feature as well because fixing the bug in #46122 showed a problem with
synchronizeBlocksWithTemplatewhere we always do synchronisation, but in this case we need to replace the blocks when the parent page attribute changes, irrespective of what the page list block already contains.This implementation while less elegant impacts less things than altering how
synchronizeBlocksWithTemplateworks.How?
Replaces the approach where we pass a template to inner blocks, and instead use createBlock and replaceBlock.
