Reveal bodies perhaps? That's about right (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

disrobe

'reveal' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't see how one could define the other.

'bodies perhaps? that's about right' is the wordplay.
'perhaps?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'perhaps' mean this).
'that's about' is an insertion indicator.
'right' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'bodies' anagrammed gives 'disobe'.
'disobe' enclosing 'r' is 'DISROBE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for disrobe that I've seen before include "bare" , "Get undressed" , "Undress" , "Remove formal clothing" , "Strip" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
