Lost code

Schwab,Wilhelm K
I have at times been disappointed to see good coding effort get lost, both in browsers and the debugger.  In the latter, it seems to happen when it warns about having to revert to a previous block or something along those lines.  The browser loses are still mysterious to me - maybe it happens if code pane isn't properly associated with the selected class.  Is there a way that the tools could keep a buffer of a few "accepts" worth of code to salvage such situations?

Hmm, if you accepted it, it should have been logged to the changes
file, be visible in the change sorter, via the 'Recover from changes'
tool, or via the versions button in the browser.  However, some
confirmation dialogs can also be quite confusing, so are you sure you
did accept the modifications ?
