But that menu would be rearranging, so it would be slower to use it.  Now,
I would suggest connecting the redo, or some "do again" command to the
last action taken.  The user always knows what he did, and always knows
where the "do again" command is located.  This would be most helpful if
the previous command was buried in submenus.
