Is it possible to set up any of the replace functions so that a single undo
will undo the entire replace?  This is a very attractive behavior, IMHO.  As
it currently exists, undo only undoes the *last* replace, one by one.  This
is a real pain if you've changed every line....

    Oh, no!  You walked into the slavering fangs of a lurking grue.
