Bug

The OCR block returns a kind that isn't compatible with the OCR stitching input. OCR stitching also expects the class names of the block to be the text, and I don't believe that's how the OCR block is implemented.

Research direction

Start by locating the OCR block and OCR stitching implementations and compare the output kind and class-name expectations at their connection point. Reproduce the incompatibility described in the issue, then verify that an OCR block output can be consumed by OCR stitching and that the expected text values are preserved, ideally with a regression test.
