Change __revisionDiffStatus from a plain string ('added'/'removed'/
'modified') to an object { status, previousAttributes? }. This allows
modified blocks to carry their previous attributes inline without
needing a separate attribute or context plumbing.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think there will be a case where changedAttributes has values, but fields is an empty array to render. If we want to harden the check, it should be done in the same changedAttributes condition above.

changedAttributes is only set when non-empty, so fields can never be an empty array. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Thanks for reviewing! Yes, I added
Right, it's the same (or worse arguably) than the classic revisions screen. Not sure how we can solve this better tbh. Attribute names don't have labels for the properties or values. Something to think about for the future. |

What?
Closes #76359.
Adds a "Changed attributes" panel to the Block tab in the sidebar when viewing revisions.
Why?
Rich-text content changes are already diffed inline in the canvas, but non-rich-text attribute changes (e.g. alignment, drop cap, class name) are invisible. This gives users visibility into what block attributes changed between revisions.
How?
__revisionDiffStatusfrom a string to an object{ status, changedAttributes? }, wherechangedAttributescontains pre-computed word-level diffs for changed non-rich-text attributes.RevisionBlockDiffPanelcomponent wired into the Block tab sidebar in revisions mode.Testing Instructions
