That's what I am trying to tell you. Any undo is actually a brand-new  
transaction that will by definition set the modification time to the  
current time. You *cannot* get back to the old modification time  
using Undo. This does not mean that Undo won't work at all, it will.  
But you will not get back your old modification time.
