I's say that's a misunderstanding of what the two buttons do.

The play button when editing actually saves changes as well as plays. It
save changes to preview.xml

The publish button saves and publishes those changes to the public version
(if made public)

Sometimes it's desirable to make changes/additions without yet publishing
those changes to the version learners see.

 

As long as you preview or publish you are always saving. In short the
current wording is more correct than renaming those buttons.

We've received some feedback within the TechDis helpdesk.

 

Alison Christie from the University of Abertay Dundee has said from some of
her workshops some suggestions are - 

 

They would like it if the "publish" button was called save and the "play"
button to be called preview. Is this something that can be changed with the
developer toolkit? If so which files would we tweak?
