Go back through searches performed in the Finder

You can go back through the searches you performed in any text field in the Finder's "Find" window (which you can bring up by typing Cmd-F) by selecting the text field and pressing Cmd-Z (Undo). Note that logging out, restarting changing the search parameters (date modified, kind, etc.) flushes this basic "search "history."

[robg adds: This works, but it's not as nice as a real search history -- there's no "redo," for instance, so once you've gone backwards, you can't go forwards. But it does work, and for more than one level, too.]
