So perhaps a better way to resolve this situation is to teach 'undo' about drag-and-drop, so that it doesn't undo selectively immediately after drag-and-drop? IOW, the selective undo feature AFAIU assumes that the region is set up by the user before invoking 'undo', and that is not so in this case.
