Thankyou for your suggestions. I'll add the aforementioned sketches to my
proposal.

Coming to your second question, design decisions with blockly are actually
quite easy to revisit. I say this because I have been perusing the
library's framework and some of blockly "paradigms" accentuated there are
worth considering.

Some of References worth considering:-
1)
https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/create-custom-blocks/define-blocks#statement_connections

There is a nice tutorial by the blockly team that abates "annoying little
details" erratic behavior of the documentation, which makes the experience
quite cumbersome at times.
2)
https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/create-custom-blocks/blockly-developer-tools#defining_a_block


Any other suggestions I should work upon? Please let me know.

Thanks & Regards,
Jaikishan
