* Provide a way to undo changes made in settings. I realize that a Cancel button is anathema to the instant-apply conventions used by the XFCE dialog boxes, but some dialogs provide the user with dozens of edit choices that are not easily remembered by humans. For example, say I want to experiment with the compositor settings to see what each of the sliders affect. I'd have to take a screen-shot of the dialog box prior to making any changes if I want to restore the sliders back to their original positions. | * Provide a way to undo changes made in settings.

What I miss from E16 is that Ctrl+Enter enlarges the window (so the dimensions are still the same -- my terminal emulator is still 80x25, but appears larger.)
