Move the baseline-captured signal from a local ref onto the reducer's
entry map so Submit/Discard/orphan-prune cleanly resets it — a second
edit after the overlay is cleared now reliably captures a new baseline
instead of silently no-op'ing on the stale ref.

Split the HOC into an outer Suggest-mode check and an inner
SuggestingBlockEdit component. The overlay's context lookup, refs, and
merge memo only run when intent === suggest; in Edit/View the wrapper
executes a single useSelect and returns the original BlockEdit
untouched, removing measurable per-render overhead on timing-sensitive
e2e specs running on shards 4/5.

Add unit coverage for View-intent pass-through and for re-capturing a
baseline after the overlay is cleared.

Adds a store-level interceptor for direct updateBlockAttributes calls
(block-switcher variation picker bypasses the BlockEdit setAttributes
HOC), replaces the JSON.stringify equality with a recursive structural
compare so reordered keys in 'style'/'metadata' don't produce spurious
'changed' detections, and rejects oversized suggestion payloads at the
sanitize_callback rather than truncating them into invalid JSON.

Also gates the orphan-prune subscription behind hasEntries, makes the
PRUNE_ORPHANS action serializable for Redux DevTools, mirrors a payload
size cap on the client, and adds tests for the new helpers.

…ceptor

The store interceptor reverts any direct `updateBlockAttributes` mutation
in Suggest mode so user-driven bypasses (e.g. the block-switcher variation
picker) can't sneak past the overlay. It was also reverting the
provider's programmatic `metadata.noteId` write that links a freshly-
created note comment back to its block, leaving every suggestion-derived
note orphaned in the sidebar with both "Original block deleted." and
"Target block has been deleted." notices.

Treat `metadata.noteId` as a system passthrough: fold it from the live
attributes into the snapshot before diffing so the value is invisible to
the diff and preserved in the revert payload, and strip it from the
overlay-bound payload so it never leaks into the user's pending edits.
Other metadata keys still go through the regular diff/revert path.

Add unit tests for the new helpers and integration tests that register
the actual block-editor store, mount the interceptor in Suggest mode,
and confirm a programmatic noteId write persists on the live block —
both alone and alongside an unrelated user-style content mutation.

The success snackbar was passing 'snackbar' as the first argument to
createNotice, but that argument is the notice status. Use 'success'
to match the valid status set; the 'snackbar' display style is still
applied via the options.type field.

…sign

Document the role and lifecycle of the in-memory overlay, the
store-interceptor's snapshot/diff/revert strategy, and the comment-meta
storage model so reviewers can understand the architecture without
reverse-engineering it from the implementation. Also document the
note-permission remap on the REST controller subclass.

Adds an eslint suppression entry for store-interceptor.js to match the
existing pre-existing react-hooks/refs violations now flagged by the
project's lint-suppression machinery.

Add lint suppressions for the recently introduced react-hooks/refs
violation in with-suggestion-overlay.js and react-hooks/globals
violation in its test, matching the pattern already used elsewhere
in the suggestion-mode directory.
