Comment:

 Good point - the behavior of the restore button is not at all obvious.

 Direct result of the current limitation where a published post cannot be
 updated without updating the live post. Once we have this ability, the
 ideal solution would be to restore the revision as a draft that could then
 be published at a later time.
