    Given the way this mod happened (and assuming accidental spam mods often go that way), what about adding a second "---" line after the spam mod, so this error results not in a spam mod, but in an invalid mod which gets ignored?

    Yeah, that's really a pretty good idea. Or put a duplicate Normal entry down there.

      How about a "are you sure you want to mod this post X" for mods which can cause damage? this would seem to solve 2 problems, the first being accidental downmods and the second being those abusing downmods as it would be harder for them to say "it was just an accident" if they had to click through a second "are you sure" box.

        Or simply an Undo Spam link beside the comment title. It already exists for all admins and editors, it shouldn't be too difficult to have it appear if you're the one who moderated the post Spam as well. Hmm...
