Invoicing - Undo/revert to previous version of an invoice
Create an undo or revert option for edits made to invoices. We can already see the history of changes made to an invoice, so why can't there be a option to undo or revert to a previous revision of the invoice?

Today I've opened an invoice and was in the process of changing a line in it. Then I've changed my mind and decided to leave the line in the invoice. In the meantime I removed the product code associated with that line and Xero autosaved the invoice in the middle of this, so now the line does have description, price, account, discount, quantity, but doesn't have its product code. Is there a way to REVERT the invoice to a previous autosaved point (specifically, a point where that line had the code)? This will save my time since if I must rewrite the whole line to restore the product code in it I'll have to add again all the other parameters (q.ty, account, price, discount, description, since as we all know when you reselect a code of a product the whole line will be overwritten by the default parameters of the coded item). That's why many don't like autosave. Autosave is not absolutely a good thing and there should be a way to deactivate it or at least to revert the autosave log to a previously saved point.

With Auto save, there is no way to correct a mistake. Xero needs to have a GO BACK option, so that mistakes can be corrected without having to redo the entire invoice.
