No, Ctrl-Z Ctrl-Z still undoes the last two edits.
Basically Ctrl-Z is now "rewind" and Ctrl-Y is now "fast forward". Instead of a stack you have an append-only list. Even Ctrl-Z appends to the list. (I'm eliding the optimizations he mentions.) So if you Ctrl-Z then edit, you can still get back to the state before your Ctrl-Z.
