Reverting a document calls through to -readFromURL:… internally.
The read and write methods are primitive, and not intended to be called directly. The save, init, and revert methods are the higher level API designed for calling directly.

By contrast I can load and write documents by using abstract -readFromData::: and -dataOfType:: or -readFromFileWrapper::: and -fileWrapperOfType:: methods and leave the actual file OS interaction to NSDocument. I basically don't have to care where it comes from or where it goes to. Wonderful!
