Feature Request - Cat step finder (in a short a brief overview of last changes in all files - when the "cat stept in")

The scenario 15 files open for edit - you go to toilette - come back and work further.
The Program does not work - reacts strange.
This is what I call a "cat step" - I had this many times with one of my cats, (and I am sure not to be the only one), often its a "sdfg" or alike in the text and often found fast
But not always (once my cat made a perfect [enter]; it took me 3 ours to find)
This is not just a cat scenario - it also happens to me (and I think to others, too) when you get interrupted  by Phone, Kids, what ever and forgot what your last typings were and where.
It also happens eg. when opening Search [strg] f and hit [shift] f - stupid but sometimes - overseen.
 ------------------
So I would like a small Dialog - last changes you (or your cat) made … the last 50 lines or so.

Hello Roland,

have you tried using Local History (File - Local History - Show History)?

Hello Olga,
 
I use the local history - very often - so yes, and it is fantastic to find the the changes you (or in my case I)  made. If you know the File …

My wish - my idea is a short overview _what files_ where changed, where to look further  -> then use the local history.

Imagine working on 3 Files A, D, U

Its easy to look at each in local history - what I think about is a small dialog that says
"you changed:
A ... 5 minuntes before
D… 7 …
X … 8 minutes [(!) oops - what did I type in "X"?! -> local History]
U …

But you can invoke Local history on a folder instead of a file, have you tried it?
