    Description

      Issue Summary

      With the new editing improvements, in order to publish a page edit without notifying the watchers of the page/space, the user must tap the ellipsis button and then, select the Publish without notifying watchers button.

      This option is not working and even if the user selects this option, this will notify the watchers of the space/page.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Make sure to access an existing page and then, edit it.
      2. On this page, as an administrator of the space, make sure to add people to become watchers of the page/space by using the little eye icon (on the top right, which is the watch icon) and then, tap Manage Watchers to add the user(s)
      3. Make a small edit on the page, and then, tap the ellipsis button on the top right of the Close button and then, select Publish without notifying watchers.

      Expected Results

      The page should be published without notifying watchers.

      Actual Results

      The email notification is sent a couple of minutes after having the edit performed.

      Notes

      This does not seem to affect the Legacy Editor.

      Workaround

      Either restrict the page for the user that will publish it, when publishing it, or, remove the watchers before publishing it.
