I think you're right -- a Revert or Cancel not even be necessary,
since nothing actually happens unless the user clicks Save.
And yes, it would be very easy to throw up a dialog if users click
onto another event without saving, and ask if they wanted to save
their changes to the currently selected event.

I believe they use the term 'Reset'. I've also seen 'Clear form'
on long form elements. I'm not sure if it really makes sense here
to cancel the changes you've made and reverts back to detail view
since the changes don't take affect until you've saved it. Those
buttons are also used when you have a lot of form elements or made
numerous changes to different parts of say 'settings' in a dialog
box. I would assume that if you didn't really want to make the
changes you would click away and there might be a dialog that pops
up and ask: 'Do you want to save the changes you've made?', yes/no.
