Body: <p>Here's a sample of a matrix block:
  <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/i5BAg.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/i5BAg.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>I would like to have my own fields inside the block and retain the basic functionalities like Collapse, Disable, etc. Basically, just use the Matrix block UI without using the Matrix field.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible?</p>
