--- undo/redo by managing the sequence of events in the current session

--- Incredibly inefficient; we make a copy of lines on every single keystroke.
--- The hope here is that we're either editing small files or just reading large files.
--- TODO: highlight stuff inserted by any undo/redo operation
--- TODO: coalesce multiple similar operations
