Search & replace should be one step in undo history
Reported by Michal Hantl | October 26th, 2010 @ 08:58 AM
I've just performed S&R that replaced 51 times.
Then I hit save, but now I see that
- my replacement was regexp (even though I used plain last time I
think) and
- it replaced stuff I didn't want to
No I say to myself "no problem", hit ctrl+Z and saw only one replacement go back.
I should be able to restore the previous state with just one ctrl+Z!
Due to shallow undo history, I need to fix all the other places by hand.

Was this using Replace All? My thoughts on this are that each individual Replace should probably be its own unique action in the undo history, but Replace All should be a single undo action. Should be an easy enough fix, I'll see what I can do about making that change today.
