Backspace unrecoverably deletes an object ....

[Peter Haworth]

I can only offer a third party solution. My lcStackbrowser plugin remembers
all deleted objects (stacks, cards, controls) until you quit and you can
undo the delete of any of them from either a contextual menu or the
lcstackbrowser trash can icon.
