The only possible problem that was found with the code at that time was
unedit -u only stripped the edit from the first branch found, so if the
user had edited lots of branches it needed to be run multiple times.
That has since been fixed.
unedit -u should be branch specific, and it isn't, which is a problem
but not one that will be hit too often (the same person isn't likely to
be editing multiple branches).
OTOH anyone who is finding they're using that command more than once
ever couple of months has a training problem - it's an emergency getout
for someone going on holiday and leaving their files edited, not a
techincal solution to users not knowing how to use the tool - it leaves
the client sandbox on the user in an indeterminate state, which can
cause problems later.
