Extension
The Timeline class handles the undo/redo of transactions. Extensions of Timeline include TreeTimeline, GridTimeline, and FormTimeline. Each widget should have it's own timeline. Sets of timelines can be aggregated into a single timeline by registration.
It can handle the disabling/enabling of the undo/redo buttons if they are registered to the timeline.
Markers can be used to implement custom actions. If markers are not used (default) then every undo/redo will undo/redo exactly one Transaction. If markers are used, every undo/redo command will undo/redo all Transactions until a Marker is found. This is helpful for grouping several Transactions into a single unit on the Timeline. However, it does require a bit more coding because Markers will need to be added quite often, and by custom code.
There's too much to explain. Look at the demo for explanation.

Known Issues
- HtmlEditor on forms doesn't undo/redo.
- Red change indicator on grid cells isn't implemented perfectly. It goes away if the value is the same as the original value, not if it is unchanged.
