 * Amazing plugin, thanks!
 * Just a minor thing that would make it _even better_ for us to use:
 * Ability to edit the TOC title, instead of the hard-coded “Table of Contents”.
   
   We usually customize the title to match the blog posts’ context; e.g.
 * – We’ll look at the following steps
    – This review covers – How we handle SEO
 * (all followed by an ul-list with anchor links)

 * As written in the faq and mentioned in the options of SimpleTOC you can remove
   the heading and add your own. Just group a new heading with SimpleTOC. Everything
   else would be redundant.

 * Thanks for your feedback [@marcdk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcdk/)

 * I’ve tested that workflow and find it rather complex to adjust the title; every
   author needs to perform multiple new steps in every blog post
    1. Hiding the default TOC title
    2. Adding a new H2-block above the TOC
    3. Setting the CSS class of the new H2 block to “simpletoc-hidden”
 * We have multiple authors of varying WordPress skill-level, so I want to keep 
   the process as straightforward as possible.
 * → I’ve gone ahead and created a pull-request for your plugin that streamlines
   this process, as the TOC title can be customized via the block properties.

 * I think this change is a great addition to your plugin without adding any complexity.
   The title is escaped, has the correct header-level (h2), and always defaults 
   to “Table of Contents” when left empty.

 * Wow and omg. Great! This is the most beautiful PR I have ever received. Even 
   with an animated gif. I will look into the pr asap and merge it. Looks great 
   at first sight and is a good solution for everyone!
