Description
In the following case:
- A published post exists with some remote modifications.
- That post is also locally modified.
- The post list will present a "Conflict Dialog" to the user when they try to open the post.
- User has the choice to "discard local" or "discard web" version.
- If the user tap "discard web", this will upload the local version to the server.
This local version might not be in a publishable state and the user won't have the possibility to review it and confirm before publishing.

Start by reproducing the remote conflict dialog with both remote and local modifications, then trace the "discard web" action from the post list. Determine where that choice uploads the local version, and verify that the local content cannot be published without a review and confirmation step.
