What should this feature add?

Since it is currently not possible to get an deleted image (and its metadata) back into the gallery database by simply retrieving the deleted image(s) from the system recycle bin, an undo function for delete operations (single and multiple images) inside of the image gallery would be a nice feature.

Research direction
Examine the current delete flow in the gallery component, particularly how images are removed from the database and UI state. Review the comments for any proposed undo patterns. Consider implementing a temporary store for deleted image metadata to allow restoration. Look at the gallery's data fetching logic to understand how to recover deleted items.
