undo an undo
This came up because I duplicated a task.
It was the wrong task.
So I hit "undo".
The popup at the top said, "Note updated. Undo Ok."
So apparently it undid some note I had just edited. Unfortunately it had been an hour and I did not know what note it was.
One thing that would help me and others in this situation is to allow an undo of the undo. For example, in regular operation when you update a note (or do almost anything) a popup appears saying "Note updated. Undo?" and the "Undo?" is clickable. If you made a mistake, you can just undo what you just did.
But if you undo something by mistake, the popup for the undo itself doesn't have an undo link to undo the undo. Sometimes it's called in other apps, "redo".

and "change menu item "undo last action" to specify the last action that will be undone" https://www.rememberthemilk.com/forums/ideas/27155/
