Oh, don't mistake me, I'd like to see this as well (we have all been burned by doing something wrong we wish to undo). But a single undo could (but in most cases it won't) be 100's of MB's of data and having to write this would slow things down a lot.

even if you just allow for undoing the last action only? that alone would save us a lot of grief :)

It depends on which one. Now Playing has undo, tagging doesn't, but that is probably due to the huge amount of data that may have to be stored if undo were available.
