I agree.  The most obvious sense of "undo" in which users want an
undo command is so that they can undo their previous command, not
so that they can undo the previous step NB took to fulfil their
previous command.  One way of solving the issue would be to have
a "stepwise undo" command which behaves as NB's undo currently
behaves, *and* a straightforward undo command which retraces all
the steps taken by NB since the user issued their last command.

If you've not sent your tale of woe to NB-NY, I think you should.

Mark.
