Identical styles message

It's possible that revisions match styles currently loaded in the editor,, e.g., if folks are using theme style variations or resetting and saving a lot.

When a revision's styles matches those in the editor, no "Apply" button is shown and the following message is displayed "These styles are already applied to your site."

Possible alternatives:

• shorter copy
• show the Apply button as per normal (even though it won't have any visual effect)
• semiotic/iconography?

Apply button behaviour

Currently, a style revision's "Apply" button restores that revision into the editor, and closes the styles revisions panel.

The functionality to restore a revision is required, however the UX is open to review.

Alternatives:

• Show a confirmation modal (Do you wish to restore this revision?) before closing style revisions panel
• ?
