One important note and p.s. on the nitpick.

Also, this may have implications for how we display watchlist items:
considering grouping edits by user, and only displaying most recent
edits (i.e. only rollback eligible edits)

Very important: what you propose here is called enhanced recent changes.

It will become the default in 1.23, but not on Wikimedia projects.

What Kenan meant is that the undo feature undoes *the diff*, i.e. applies the specific diff you're reverting, in the opposite direction. Rollback on the other hand is an older and more drastic feature which completely restores a previous revision as a whole, whatever happened after it.
