You definitely want this.  My son hates losing data more than I
do.  The frustration of a preschooler can be an awesome thing
to behold.

The Sesame street software has an undo icon with Elmo looking 
shocked and distraught on it, if I'm not mistaken, maybe we
could do that with Tux (I gather that's the name of the Linux
penguin character).  

I haven't figured out how to look at your project yet, but 
I'm impressed that you started something, I'll have to find 
vtcl.  BTW, I think the expression is "stocking horse" (as in,
made of stockings, therefore not real) not "stalking horse".  
That's sort of a funny image, though. :D

Ja, ganbate kudasai!
