Comment (by westonruter):

 @folletto something related to this is a shortcut to show the diff of the
 changes for the current customizer session (the active changeset). In
 other words, “If I hit Publish what specifically are the changes that will
 go live?” This UI could be accessed by locating the current changeset in
 the list of all the changesets, if there is such a list. But it could be
 particularly useful if all of the controls with dirty settings would get
 some visual indicator that they are modified, and perhaps even a UI to
 revert the change. This could also then tie into some concurrency locking
 (#31436) in the customizer, where if two users are editing the same
 changeset, a UI could be shown which marks a control as being locked or
 that it has a value supplied from another, and maybe a UI to show a diff.
