Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

In Ubiquity's manual partition editor, if you change several partitions,
then decide to undo a change to a single partition, the obvious thing to
do is to select the partition and pick 'revert' from its context menu.
However, this undoes all changes to all partitions, not just the
selected one. (It appears to be just a clone of the Revert button on the
UI.)

This is unintuitive and also deeply annoying, since it takes 5-10
seconds to make each change due to the way Ubiquity insists on
rescanning the partition tables after every item. This is an area where
the workflow needs to be as smooth as possible --- you don't want
frustrated users editing partition tables.
