            Bug ID: 51655
           Summary: Confusion caused by nested cancel buttons
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

The button to cancel edits and return to read mode is labeled "cancel";
clicking it brings up a dialog box with buttons "OK" and "cancel". Clicking
*that* "cancel" cancels the cancel and returns to editing mode—not blatantly
wrong, but confusing. Perhaps the first button should be renamed "discard
edits" or similar?
