Would "undelete" include a facility for "un-transfer" in general? Or
does "un-transfer" come under the category of a "general undo"?

How would we go about getting this implemented? I think it would be a
big help.

Also, I can't help asking the question that did the programmers think it
would be better not to put in a general undo, or was it an oversight?
Because e-mail software has had this feature since the mid 1990's.
