Have the avia layout builder be the default editor for new posts/pages

So i have this nasty habit of answering my own questions (hint hint). Anyway, i tried to figure out how write an action or a filter that somehow beats the admin (new post) page into submission, but time is precious and i quickly realized i’ll never get there fast enough. So i did the next best thing. I hacked the hack (aka this method gets rid of the “flicker” issue).

// use #postdivrich_wrap for editor only, #post-body for (pretty much) everything
// see https://kriesi.at/support/topic/always-open-advanced-layout-builder/#post-452117
add_action('admin_head-post-new.php', 'trigger_alb_on_load');
function trigger_alb_on_load(){
	echo '<style>#postdivrich_wrap { display: none; }</style>';
	?>
	<script>		
		(function($){
			$(window).load(function() {
				$("#avia-builder-button").trigger('click');
				$("##postdivrich_wrap").css('display', 'inherit');
			});
		})(jQuery);
	</script>
	<?php
}

If you would like to go further than this, check out generic-helper.class.php and more specifically builder_status(). Also, template-builder.class.php and more specifically wrap_default_editor(). I gave up right about there on trying to find out what happens behind the curtains.
