Description

Steps to reproduce:

open page in NWE
make changes
open Publish dialog, click Show preview (probably not really necessary but this is how I got to the error)
wait a few minutes
click Review your changes

Will result in a badtoken error message, which gets cached in memory as if it were the change info (so closing and reopening the publish dialog will just redisplay the error without any attempt to repeat the request).

I can't reproduce this. Admittedly, instead of waiting a few minutes, I just logged out in another tab, but that should have the same effect of invalidating the token. NWE transparently handled the 'badtoken' error from the API, and retried with a new token.

I have no idea when this was fixed.
