Technically it's a "margins separator" widget. Is the thing that you had in mind?
Comment 2 Felipe Kinoshita 2021-03-22 21:06:16 UTC
Yes!
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2021-03-22 21:12:00 UTC
Gotcha, thanks.

Hi! I'm personally not a fan of this requested feature. This is mostly because a "margin separator" is not a simple concept that a everyday user would get; and as such, it would create confusion. Poweruser who actually want to customize heavily margin areas (something I consider very, very rare) will be more than able to actually add them from the widget list.
