Hi Rick,
since you are normally going to edit the note, certainly with the
ability
to undo, I don't think it makes sense to redefine undo for this. I
can see how what you
ask for would be useful, but I see no good logic to implement it.
Maybe the easiest is to define yourself a separate key for switching
sequences,
so that it is less likely to press S-right by accident?
