Personally, I think "restore" is perfect.  To me, it says exactly what you
intend.  

Having seen the link after Patrick changed the position of the restore link,
I'm not sure how it appeared before.  However, I have to say that I would like
to see the link *inside* the box of the item it will revert to.  Now, what
happens if someone restores to a place that loses valuable info by accident? 
Is the data that changed in the restoration process to the original document
gone for good?
