NSUndoManager works something like this:

1. The first time an action is registered, an undo group begins.

2. The group is scheduled to be closed using -[NSRunLoop 
performSelector:target:argument:order:modes:]. See the constants section of 
NSUndoManager for a little more detail.

As simple as that :)
