Comment(by tangobravo):

 A bit more thinking: Another reason the backgrounds case is confused is
 due to the single/all workspaces issue.

 Perhaps another less confusing way of presenting the same options:
 Settings are live-applied to the current workspace. Another button, "Apply
 to All Workspaces", is used for the more destructive step of applying to
 all.

 Maybe two revert buttons - "Revert This Workspace", "Revert All
 Workspaces" to handle the Revert confusion. Alternatively a single Revert
 button, but if both "all" and "this" have been changed (to different
 things) then pop up a question box.
