"Alice has deleted this page" and "Bob has restored this page from recycle
bin" are *activity stream* events more than history entries (versions).
There's no need to be able to revert, compare or blame such a "version".
There may be other page actions like this too, that should appear in the
activity stream (for a page) but that don't necessarily generate a new
version in the history. So we could imagine having another "Activity
Stream" tab/viewer besides History, or a unified History viewer that shows
both activity stream events and page versions.
