Notes for the future -- of the issues linked to above, the most important features are as follows:

• Custom CSS for the whole site and on a per block basis, especially as this is linked to from the Site Editor.
• Shadow presets for Buttons block
• Edit block style variations from global styles
• Inline block preview: add preview block in nested global style panels
• The Style Book

Notes about what I did:

• Removed all references to "beta".
• Updated screenshot for the Welcome Guide to show the CSS panel.
• Added in a general CSS section with screenshots for both global and per block CSS.
• Updated the Blocks video to show the in line preview.
• Noted the in line preview in the block setting.
• Added a section about editing block variations under Blocks called "Editing block variations".
• Removed mentions of 6.1 as that's now a version behind and added in notes about 6.2 instead.
• Added a section about box shadows for buttons under blocks called "Adding box shadows to Button block".
• Added a video for the above section.
• Added a new section called "Preview your changes with Style Book" and included a video.

Only odd thing is the table of contents isn't updating to include CSS and Style Book.

Closing out!
