About a month ago, I wrote this: http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2011-April/031191.html I've been working on my own prototype editor project for years (it may replace Duke Nukem Forever as king of vaporware at the rate I'm going, but I'm still working on it), and I've had some definite thoughts on undo management. API's like this interest me quite a bit. Also see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617532 - where Mozilla is considering their own API proposals. One use case I've envisioned is an undo popup menu, where each item of the undo stack has an actual label to go with it, describing the transaction. Then you could easily see how many items you wanted to go back! I'd be happy to take this off-list, or keep it on-list, whatever you prefer. -- "The first step in confirming there is a bug in someone else's work is confirming there are no bugs in your own." -- Alexander J.
