/**
These are the elements put on the undo stack. Each object contains complete
paragraphs from some cell and sufficient information to restore the cursor
state.
The cell is given by a DocIterator pointing to this cell, the 'interesting'
range of paragraphs by counting them from begin and end of cell,
respectively.
The cursor is also given as DocIterator and should point to some place in
the stored paragraph range. In case of math, we simply store the whole
cell, as there usually is just a simple paragraph in a cell.
The idea is to store the contents of 'interesting' paragraphs in some
structure ('Undo') _before_ it is changed in some edit operation.
Obviously, the stored ranged should be as small as possible. However, it
there is a lower limit: The StableDocIterator pointing stored in the undo
class must be valid after the changes, too, as it will used as a pointer
where to insert the stored bits when performining undo.
