If you have a saved search where one of the criteria is that the message is unread, deleting a message and then undoing the delete doesn't restore the message to the view, because the restored message is read, and no longer matches the search criteria.

This is my biggest pet peeve with saved searches, because I spend most of my time in a "new messages" folder which aggregates recent unread messages in my inboxes and filter target folders. Fix upcoming.
Attached patch proposed fixSplinter Review
We arbitrarily keep track of the 20 most recently deleted messages. Since the common use case is deleting a single message and then changing your mind, I think this will solve the 99% use case.
