Editing board description, topic titles and posts always refresh from the server.

However, clicking cancel shows the old version, not the one that was just refreshed from the server. Is it something we want to fix as part of this task, which is in our goals for the quarter? @DannyH

If we want to show the new content on cancel, we need yet another API request. The reason is that we can't use what we already have inside the editor, because it is the wrong format.

So... is it something we want to add?

Not necessary in my opinion.
