I may be missing one or more points here, but was there really a need for the Revalidate button in the first place? Any browser's page reload feature seems to work (bar a possible question about resending form data). If this is commonly feasible but not generally known (as the existence of the former Revalidate button perhaps indicated) it may deserve a mention in the documentation, as has been suggested [1].
