A:
Better ever than never? ;-)

Anyway, it's the '_was_' variant. --undo basically is a <refute>
operation and to have it mimic an undo it should be applied to the
same db/collection as the previous training-to-be-undone.

Note that you won't get a 'perfect' undo (unless a series of
particular conditions are met). Hence, in actual practice, it's an
/approximation/ of an undo.
