New description:

 On the revisions screen(s) currently, the only way to get back to the
 post-editing screen is to click the link at the top in the middle of:
 'Compare Revisions of "<linked>Post Title</linked>"', which seems neither
 intuitive nor obvious to me.

 There was also [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/return-to-page-edit-
 from-revision-comparison?replies=3 a post] awhile back in Alpha/Beta about
 this.

 It would be nice if there were some user tests backing this up, but at
 this point in the cycle informed UX feedback should suffice.

 The attached patch adds a secondary 'Cancel' button alongside the primary
 'Restore This Revision' button. Also covers RTL.
