Hi,

I've noticed that in org-mode, undo undoes one character at a time.

Normally in Emacs, undo is done in chunks.  To quote from the manual:

So to undo a sentence that you've typed in, only a few "undos" are  
required.  In org-mode, though, it seems self-inserting characters  
aren't grouped, and my undos are thus more tedious.

Is this a feature or a bug?  I like the grouped undo feature.

In outline mode, the undo is still grouped, so it seems this is an  
undo-specific thing.  I am running version 6.22b

Thanks,
Nick
