I'll look into that.

You're the third person to complain about that :)
The changes you suggested are quite good, I think. I'll implement them
in the next days.

Uhm, not sure what to do about that. Undo and back are quite different
actions. At the moment the history panel is very limited, but in the
future it should support a number of actions like truncating the game,
or moving variations around, and undo will be useful to revert
destructive actions in that case. Right now, you're right that it
basically means "take back", but in editing mode (i.e. playing against
yourself) it also reverts a truncation that happens when you perform a
move in the middle of a game history.
