 I've noticed a couple of small things we can do to improve the UI/UX of
 the new revisions screen:

 A couple things to consider:

 - Add a short description (intro sentence) explaining what to do once you
 land on the page.
 - ~~Disable previous and next buttons when you're on the first, and last
 node.~~ [24020]
 - ~~Fix some padding/margin inconsistencies (i.e. unnecessarily large
 padding on right side of screen)~~
 - Slider handle (blue down arrow) icon looks a tad rasterized (especially
 on retina device)
 - Seems like the "Restore this revision" button should be in the proximity
 of the right side instead of in the middle (as the right side is the
 visual representation of what will actually be restored).
 - ~~When in "Compare two revisions" mode, the blue highlighted section
 within the slider, covers all of the revision nodes.  We might look at
 decreasing the height of that blue highlighted area.~~ [24020]

 land on the page.

 Should we add a help tab?
