Description

On Layer Properties there are four buttons at the bottom:

OK, Cancel, Apply, and Help (which does not show any help, by the way.)

Well you forgot Undo.

Without Undo, if there is any mishap, which is extremely likely, the
user must quit without saving changes, and start qgis all over again.

You might think that closing Layer Properties, and clicking Edit > Undo
would help. But I am sorry to inform you that that item is greyed out.
Furthermore, CTRL+Z does nothing.

History

You are right but note that QGIS 2.16 comes with a dock panel for layer properties (not all covered yet) and this panel has an Undo command. I think layer properties future is through this dock panel.

If I recall well there's a plugin that does it currently: UndoPropertiesChanges. You might give it a try meanwhile.
