Simple: C-z for Undo, C-S-z and possibly C-y for Redo, in cua-mode, on
the grounds that these are the most common bindings for this
functionality in pretty much all other software. (C-y will conflict
with yank but cua-mode binds C-v to cua-paste which is a close
analog.)

For text terminal non-cua users, maybe negative universal argument to
the undo command?
