ALT-Backspace is Undo
I was using Outlook 2007 and I accidentally had my alt key stuck on my keyboard. When I hit backspace to delete a character, it deleted the last little bit I typed. It turns out this is a fairly standard feature of the edit box being used there (also used by Notepad). By using Spy++, I saw that it is sending an EM_CANUNDO and if it is enabled, sends a EM_UNDO. I tried this in the Wordpress edit window as well. Unfortunately, the redo button doesn’t enable. So you are better off using Control+Z anyway.
