Please add "undo" feature to PDF inking

Add "undo" feature to PDF inking so that when we accidentally erase/remove something (inking, highlight etc) we be able to undo it, also would be useful to use the "undo" feature for when we add inking so instead of using eraser we just undo the action.

the undo feature can either be tied to the usual CTRL + Z shortcut or a button on the PDF toolbar in Edge.

(also sent using feedback button on Edge)

        neighborsgoose ðŸ˜ž I switched over to Xodo PDF reader. It's free and has all the same features plus more. But yeah, disappointed in Edge.

      It's been over a year and Microsoft still hasn't changed this. Please get on it! It cancels out all the usefulness of the annotate feature. I'm going to have to switch to different apps soon....

      "Legend has it that the pdf review team is still in process of reviewing the undo feature"
      Its been more that a year and still no progress I guess. I'm just wondering how this pdf viewer went out into production in the first place without such a basic operation of Undo.
