separate it...
1) Curve/Surface editmode undo
Uses same syntax as mesh undo, so simple to integrate. Edit-curve data is
also quite simpler, so no need for any hack at all.
It re-uses the undo system from next point, which is nice short & clean
local code
2) Framework for global undo
The undo calls themselves are commented out. In a next commit I want to
enable it for a couple of main features, for further feedback.
The speed goes surprisingly well, especially with this new version that
'pushes' undo after a command, ensuring interactivity isnt frustrated
3) framework for texture based icons in Blender
Not activated code, but tested here. Part of 2.3 UI project.
btw: Johnny Matthews will assist in (and complete) the undo project
