It would be nice if themes could provide unique styling (colors, etc.) based on revision status, published, and latest revision info. This patch adds some classes to assist with that, and default styles in the module to indicate node/revision properties like published, latest and current.
Identifying revision state currently can be done by visually scanning for the text. With a small amount of additional CSS we can enhance this by making entire rows visibly distinguishable by moderation state and active/current revision flag.

Set row classes for each moderation state and add a library for moderation state colors.

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
MR has conflicts and I'm personally not a huge fan of changing this in the module. People are used to the defaults by now and admin themes should be IMO in charge of stylising these types of things.
