Component body

This module allows you to place each value of a muti-value paragraph field into a different block. And further it allows you to place paragraph fields from related entities in a similar manner. It does so by extending both paragraphs with an admin title that is only used in the UI for layout and extending panels by providing the blocks for placement.

This is a proof-of-concept module. And if this is desirable, many of these concepts should be added back to paragraphs, panels and/or ctools modules. There's a lot of overlap in this space.

The problem

Paragraphs is a good container. Panels (and panelizer) are good layout managers. And while you can place a paragraph field on the page via a ctools block, and you can create multiple paragraph fields and place them each individually on the page, you can't create an entity with a multi-value paragraph field, and then place each value in different blocks.
