Description Gale Andrews 2010-09-21 01:18:00 UTC

Impossible to recover selection as not undoable. 

I suggest since this is a clipboard-like function, Region Restore is greyed out until a region has been saved. Probably not necessary to then add it to Undo history, as moving the selection isn't normally added.
