Hi Itsvan, i was talking about accidental deletions. but now that you raise the issue, maybe it would also be nice to be able to group whatever related history items into 'folders' (also viewable in the history pane) to clear the view. don't know if i'm clear... if not just tell me.

cheers j

Hello Julien,

here's an important feature galaxy should have, in our opinion: a 'restore deleted item' capability.

Do you think that this feature is needed because it is easy to accidentally delete items, or because the history gets too crowded when there are too many items on it. And then there is an urge to clean it up to make it more tractable, but it turns out later that the deleted item might have been needed again.

Either way it should be straightforward to implement this feature, and we'll get on it.
