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.

I'm confused -- edits and revisions are
synonymous. In both cases,
we're talking about atomic changes to a single document that are
stored sequentially as a version history. Am I missing something?
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.
