Fortunately more and more programs learned now the multiple undo, which is
the killer for the del conf dialog. I think of AutoCAD and LabVIEW, of which
the first one could undo everything since version 1 and the latter didn't
even have a single undo since 15 years.

((Did anyone notice that I did NOT mention the big enemy's programs!? ;-))
