- Create a new experiment through the toolbar
- Transform one of the html element's inner html for the non control variant
- Click save as draft
- Toggle to control variant, you should see that the inner html doesn't switch back to control's despite being currently applied

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the toolbar flow for a saved no-code web experiment and compare the element's inner HTML while toggling between the control and non-control variants. Done means toggling immediately restores each variant's saved HTML without requiring a refresh.
