When I said I hit delete, I meant I hit the delete icon (trash can).   
I must have hit the lower trash can that time.  They really should  
make the distinction more clear in the user interface --both trash  
cans are next to the field with a hilited line.  In any case I tried  
it again, and sure enough, the undo does not undo a delete of the  
property set.  Then I quit Rev and it did not ask if I wanted to  
save.  Lots of cracks in the IDE.
