Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Confirmed

Bug description:
I am using version 0.9.2 in ubuntu 9.04 32 bit.

1st feature:
I would like to see a multilevel "undo" feature, so If I make a mistake with something, I can go back to where I was.  I tried using a few of the tools and suddenly lost a few tracks and other items, so I looked for the undo button and tried ctrl-z, but there was no way to go back, so I had to reload the project in an earlier saved state.

2nd feature:
When working with audio files or the audio within a video file, currently, you can adjust the volume for the whole clip by selecting properties and going to the audio tab and moving the slider.  But you can't vary the volume within the clip at different levels at different times.  What I mean is, if I want the audio to start normally, then drop to a lower volume for a while and then climb back up to normal again.  This allows for a sound track from a video clip to come in when needed and then go back to the audio clip.

This feature is implemented, somewhat clumsily, in Open Movie Editor, but it does work.

3rd feature:
Also part of audio, the ability to enter audio directly from a microphone would be nice so you could narrate in real time over various clips.

Thank you for your work on this badly needed project.
