Is that possible?

Why not? Most other frameworks have supported multilevel Undo for many years.
How many apps outside the xTalk universe have you seen without that?

If that is true I wonder why it wasn't implemented donkey's years ago.

The closest thing to xTalks for scriptable rich media engines today are browsers.
Browser capabilities have grown so much it takes some of the wealthiest companies ever to pool their resources to keep extending it.
It's hard for any single company to try to keep up.

This could probably be scripted as an extension or IDE addon. I know I have an auto-save add-on somewhere that could probably be modified to offer unlimited 'revert' to saves. But I don't even use that addon anyway. Before I continue working on a stack's development sometimes I might manually duplicate a copy and put it a folder labeled 'OLD' in case I need to return to a previous iteration for some reason. Not very good version control though, and not really a substitute for multiple undos (which script editor does have, until you save and close the editor).
