 Currently, if you start editing a page or a post and change your mind,
 there is no way to easily revert those changes and it leads to a lot of
 confusion as as if you leave the page and come back, it will tell you that
 there is an auto save version. Sending to Trash makes no sense because it
 trashes your whole page. This is VERY confusing and user unfriendly,
 especially for new users of WP.

 There should be a "revert" or "cancel" button when editing that will get
 rid of current edits and take you back to the last, unedited version of
 the page/post.
