Why do we keep the \"Published\" option in a vtab? Couldn't we simply move this checkbox in the form of a separate \"Publish\" button (and change the \"Save\" button to something like \"Save as draft\")?\r\n\r\nIn [D7UX: \"Save draft\" and \"Publish\" buttons on node forms [#282122]](https://www.drupal.org/node/282122), it was suggested that there should be 3 buttons in the node edit/save form and 3 different scenarios:\r\n\r\nOn a new node:\r\n[Publish] [Save as Draft] [Preview]\r\n\r\nOn a non-published node:\r\n[Publish] [Save changes] [Preview]\r\n\r\nOn a published node:\r\n[Save and republish] [Save and unpublish] [Preview]\r\n\r\n(we removed the \"Preview\" option in #218)\r\n\r\nThat issue was closed as a duplicate of [Support revisions in different states [#218755]](https://www.drupal.org/node/218755) which aimed to introduce a new API but no UI changes.
