file restore event from version history

When a file is restored from version history on the web, how would one determine if this is a restored file. Both via webhooks and polling method (may not make a difference?).

    The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to distinguish if any particular file version was caused by a restoration or by a normal file upload/edit event, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
