Well, some applications already have this ability. First one that comes to my mind is Adobe Photoshop (and probably other Adobe products) which displays all undoable commands in a tool window. Some KDE apps have this, too. Karbon comes to my mind. It's very usefull if the software allows very complex editing, etc. However I don't think that I'd use it for simpler appications like kwrite or even kword.
It'd be interesting to know if this is a good thing (TM) for less experienced users (like maybe mothers :)) from a usability perspective. Greets, Hans
