Public bug reported:

I noticed the following behaviour on hugin Pre-Release
2010.5.0.397a5cc07149 self-built on Kubuntu 10.10. To make sure, I went
bleeding edge and found the same in Pre-Release 2010.5.0.e7939a4f5bc7:

I had finshed with one project and opened another. After a few steps I
decided to undo them and pressed undo several times. Instead of stopping
at the point where I had opened the new project, hugin proceeded to
reload the images and context of the previous project. Pressing 'save'
in this situation would overwrite the new project with the old one,
since the new project's name was still active. Trying to get back into
the new project by pressing 'redo' was impossible, though.

I think that either undoing beyond the loading of the current project
should be made impossible, or reverting to a previous project via undo
should change back to the old project completely, also making it's name
active again, together with a warning that edits to the new project will
be lost, since once the old project's context has been reestablished,
you cannot get back to the new project.
