Accidental Publish, Can't Go Draft In Edit?

    I noticed in 3.8 I somehow accidentally published a post I was working on… Usually I can save the draft but somehow it appeared unfinished.

    The first thing I noticed was the fact that I couldn’t unpublish the post, or set it to draft in the edit view (post.php) – I could only set it as private and could only switch it to draft in the all posts view…

    Is this suppose to be a feature? I felt rather alarmed when my draft appeared in Google SERPs when I was looking for reference material. :S

    On the edit view, click ‘Edit’ next to ‘Status: Published’ in the Publish meta box. Set the drop down to ‘Draft’, press OK and then update.
