Another good example is the add edge tool. You can click on edges to connect the clicked points with edges, but to undo one such operation you don't press ctrl+z. Nooo, that would be too intuitive, right? You actually have to press the backspace button! Or you exit the tool, and press ctrl-Z, but
You can do that with mark menus Stefan (i think), a more annoying one is
when you want to delete an edge from a ring of polygons, it will remove the
edge but leave the verts where the edge was connected, so you have to
select the loop then go to a specific command delete edge and vertex in

Yup! Expect a lot of functionality you think is 'normal' to be lost in Maya.
Even the most basic stuff we're so used too isn't there, but has to be
found in additional scripts and plugins.
