Normal undo/redo behavior
Is there any way to make undo/redo behave 'normally' ? Sometimes undoing and redoing breaks some state, which means I lose code. Sometimes it undoes way too much, way before this file opened, maybe even before this session. Sometimes it removes or unremoves a file! Not related to the file I'm in.
I don't want smart, assistive super AI undo/redo. I want to undo and redo as many times as I want without breaking state. Changing a cursor shouldn't break a redo path! Closing a file should remove all undo state. Etc. Just the normal simple kind...

Seems relevant, but 4 years old: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/207041355-Undo-and-redo-for-code-changes-only-
As you know, Undo/Redo is global, that's why you're seeing all these side effects.

I did not know. That's very discomforting. And an 11 year old issue doesn't bode well.
