“Reusable Gutenberg Blocks Widget” didn’t work properly for my site so I just switched
to this plugin, and found this is the one I expected. Appreciated for awesome implementation.

Thank you! Nice and lightweight plugin. Please add a description with a link to 
the list of global blocks below the Blocks dropdown. This would make it easier to
create new global blocks if needed. Also i would expect the block title is used 
as widget title but it is not. Will you that please?
