No UnDo on right-click?

Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Wishlist for extra-functionality that Windows already has (i think Win98 had it?)

Also missing from the Edit menu (& couldn't find somewhere weird either) the right-click menu is considerably shorter and less useful than the Windows (i can't bear to write Microsoft) one.

In Windows a long history of previous actions is remembered and right-clicking within the empty area in a file-browser window would typically have an item that might read "Undo rename" or "Undo delete", depending on what the last action had been, sometimes it's quite ridiculous quite how much it lets me undo.

Sigh, it's clearly not enough to make me go back to #$*£^ Windows and i doubt many Windows users even know it's there but i kinda miss it when i do something dumb (quite often happens sadly)

Anyway, thanks all for your hard work in keeping me happy with Linux, particularly with Ubuntu. Well done :)
regards and happy new year from
Tom :)
