I am developing a ctrl-z and ctrl-y functionality for a user form, and I noticed that pressing these buttons in the designer performs the designer action even when in preview mode. I'm not sure I would classify this as a bug, but it does seem kinda wierd to have components deleted (via ctrl-z) when the program is running.

Maybe not a bug, but at least a mis-feature. Wouldn't hurt to open a ticket.
