Comment:

 I think some branches (pun intended) need to be shaken on this one. I
 think this is in many ways a serious bug, at least if we want to have a
 serious Preview feature.

 Solution proposed by @ryanduff seems a bit janky to me, and risky (size
 wise) if a significant amount of post meta is stored.

 I think @bookwyrm solution is where my mind is going - it's not
 immediately clear to me at all why that block of code that prevents post
 meta from saving to revisions is in there (preventing database clutter...
 ?).

 Like the deeper solution @alexkingorg is proposing in his related ticket,
 but not sure it even has to be that involved.
