Check out the latest version of the scratchblocks generator I've been hacking on! It has a brand-new absolutely-positioned app-like layout, thanks to some intense procrastinating I've done this afternoon.
Scratchblocks still aren't enabled on the forums or wiki, but you can still use the test page as before, and there are also instructions for enabling them on your site. (example on weebly by zorket).
EDIT: the generator now lives at scratchblocks.github.io/generator/

My money's on n…I'm sure he can do it, if it's possible. But I'm pretty convinced it isn't with pure CSS.

You can do it with CSS; you just need a bunch of useless extra elements if you want highlights and stuff (because nobody implemented the awesomeness of ::before(n))My money's on n…I'm sure he can do it, if it's possible. But I'm pretty convinced it isn't with pure CSS.

Extra elements are easy; care to explain your method…?

Yeah, the lack of multiple :before pseudo-elements is a painYou can either use borders (but you have to calculate the width with JS) or the to syntax with gradients.

Aw! It would look so cool for this to be avaliable!
Also, if this IS implemented as a BBCode, don't you you think it would be a good idea to manually set it's category? It would help for making block examples, such as this:

EDIT: something like a comment on the end of the line might work better. But I'm not sure I like that either.

I was thinking this was a particularly good idea for things like custom blocks - because your renderer currently renders them as red blocks and having a correctly coloured block would help a little when recognizing what category you're in. For the multiple blocks, I was thinking they would all appear the same, like these blocks do:
move (10) steps
glide (1) secs to x:() y:()
[scratchblocks=motion]
say [Hello!]
play sound [Motion v]
jump (10)
do a 360
[/scratchblocks]
All of those blocks would appear as motion blocks, regardless of their real category.
