It would be cool to be able to allow your macros to be undone so that if you do something that uses multiple actions, and you hit undo, it will undo the whole macro. If you have a macro that has say 4 or 5 commands, you have to hit undo 4 or 5 times.

Maybe a couple of options in the macro window? Something like an "undo all for current macro" check box or something.

Also, maybe an option to "override undo". I can definitely think of times where I would want to do that, such as creating a macro for data zoom. Say I data zoom in to make a few splices to events, then data zoom out. If I figured out I want to undo a few splices, I don't have to undo all of my macro data zooms just to undo an editing task since data zoom is more for navigation and doesn't require an undo.

Lordy mama this needs more votes. I have some macros I use in comping and it seems odd to fire off my macro with one keystroke and then have to undo four times when I change my mind.
