Accidentally undoing rename and especially move can also be destructive.

Undoing rename loses the new name.

Undoing move places files back in the source dir, which might be then deleted
by the user, which is a common scenario: cheery pick files from source dir,
move to target dir, accidental undo here, delete source dir.
Even undoing the cherry pick is already destructive because it might have been
a lot of work to select the right files for moving.
The worst thing is: the user may not even notice until much later, when the
damage can be irreversible.

> deletion

When an undo results in deletion, this shows a delete confirmation dialog
already, I think.

As in the original report:
"Dolphin/Konqueror or at desktop folder view"
