> 5. Observe permanent loss of file without warning
So the destination of the copy is removed upon copying Ctrl+z is the issue.
What would you suggest dolphin would do then ?
We could have some confirmation when undoing the copy.
A clever thing to do would be in the Copy undo logic check if the original file is still there or not, and ask then if you want to remove the destination or move the file back where it was.
This would be a bit tedious to implement.
Still this might not be a legitimate feature: Ctrl+Z is a destructive operation by nature, it can delete files and directory and that's expected.

This is what I was envisioning.
