I want to undo changes to a query. Undo should be available everywhere!!

Just another example of appalling design decisions by Microsoft. That they can continue to ship products that can instantly delete your work (you clicked an error value in a column? hope you didn't need all those subsequent steps!), and rip off customers for the pleasure, just shows how bad the product team are at their jobs. Maybe don't make an IDE where you cannot save anything until all code is running perfectly?This needs to be made available in both Gen1 and Gen2 dataflows

Of course we need this. Absolutely ridiculous omission.

Fairly Basic Editing requirement, Everyone Makes mistakes. Some are costly and need to be undone!!

Also, if you accidentally delete a table with many merges in a dataflow, there should be a "Restore" option. Could have used that today.

This completely basic "idea" - which is nothing but a standard feature - has been created in 2017 - wow...

Accidentally deleting the last step of applied steps after working on it for 30 minutes is not a great feeling. Since there's no warning, I didn't notice what I was doing. An undo would have totally saved me
