But remove doIts takes out class definitions, doesn't it?
In general, it seems changelists have not got a lot of love and attention:
* Multiple selection in the change list browser requires individual
selection of each element--no range select. And if you try to slide
the mouse too quickly, you miss items.
* No select all above or below point.
* Eliminate older versions has a conception of what is the same that
is too broad (e.g., as I recall, it removed all doits, even though different
classes were being created).
Is there some other tool or approach I should be trying when I need to
recover my work?
Ideally I won't be needing it :).
