Oh, yeah, I was thinking of `C-x C-r' and not `C-c C-r', but that's
unfortunately taken.

Hm...  the `C-x' map is pretty heavily populated.  Let's see what's
free...

C-x C-a
C-x C-y

Wow, those are the only `C-x C-<something>' not bound of the
alphabetical keys.  Neither seem extremely mnemonic for "revert"...

Perhaps `C-x C-a' for "aaargh, reload that file already!"
