            Bug ID: 53176
           Summary: Notifications: Not getting notified for reverts if
                    Preview or Show Changes is used

If a user clicks Preview or Show Changes before hitting Save, then it won't
send a notification.

Anomie explains why, in the penultimate comment here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Notifications/Archive_4#Edit_reverts
"Looking at the code, it appears that Echo detects an "undo" by looking for the
field wpUndidRevision in the submitted form data. This field is present in the
form created when using the 'undo' link, but it isn't maintained if you use the
Preview or Show changes buttons on the edit form. So "undo → Save page" would
be notified as an undo, while "undo → Preview → Save page" or "undo → Show
changes → Save page" wouldn't be. Anomie⚔ 10:43, 18 July 2013 (UTC)"

a second example is mentioned here:
