This is a suggestion to increase the functionnality of Undo's, idea
originating from Kaveh Kardan <uunet!icule!taarna!kaveh>.  I found the
idea possibly interesting, so I submit it to this group.

It could be useful if it were possible to have several undo lists for
a single buffer, kept independantly for some specified regions.  This
could be used, say, to have modifications undo-able on a per function
basis, in a C program.
