System Information
Ubuntu 18.04

Blender Version
Broken: 7d38654

Short description of error
Redo panel for moving the 3d cursor does not work as expected.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Start moving the 3d cursor and then change the value in the redo panel.

My guess is that this happens because the 3d cursor is not effected by the normal undo.

Can confirm this.

Curious though when I would need to do that. I usuallysnap 3D cursor to selection and then scale to it orI place it to create objects on top of it: add groups / lights to a specific spot in the scene.

Rarely I change the location in the 3D Cursor tab on the right where you can move it to any world location (starting with the current values it has already).
Although sometimes after placing it, I read the values so I find that definitely useful.

Only occurence when I would like to use this I can think of is to move the cursor along a local coordinate system (referencing the new possibility to have rotation on the cursor. Because you can always move the cursor along world axes utilizing it's tab in the Sidebar.

Now also kind of realizing that cursor's rotation is not yet exposed in the Sidebar panel (shortcut:N) on the right.

If i change the 3D Cursor position with the N panel settings for the 3d cursor i can't get the Adjust Last Operation panel to appear..

This is very important feature... on the other hand a bug/error. because after moving the cursor redo panel shows... (why).. not works in many ways.
e.g.

move the cursor, form redo panel changing the value effects too many, also only in postie direction (where values are less or not)
rotate the cursor, redo panel not effects the 3d-cursor rather then last selected object
scales the 3d cursor, redo panel still shows...

I have a q? why until know this is resolved...

In my tests, using the 3D cursor Move Panel X/Y/Z sliders sends the cursor to infinity and beyond. Behaves as when you have a circular dependency in hierarchy.
This happens in all 2.82 stable, 2.83 beta and 2.90 alpha. Windows.
I can't even control the cursor like the original gif in this report shows, maybe because I'm on Windows?
Should I open a new bug report?

Here is an old patch from when I investigated this issue.
Maybe it fix the problem but bring others.
It might be useful in some way:
