I have a client that wants to update the change log with the before and after value of their multi-instance UD windows? Has anyone done this before? Also, the same client said that they saw a sales demo in which th change log was used to 'unwind' an entry??
Updating or Adding to the Change Log
I agree with Dmitry.

I agree with Dmitry. There's definitely no way to "unwind" a change out of the box and there probably isn't a reliable way to do it with a customization.
As for multi-instance change logs, my only suggestion would be to look into the iFlow app that METISC developed. It's been a while since I've worked with the product, but I remember it being a great way to incorporate workflow without adding triggers to iMIS tables.
Change LOG and UDT
As far as I know multi instance UDT are not logged by the Change log.
Also I never heard/seen that you can "unwind" changes using Change_LOG. As a matter of fact CHANGE_LOG is not designed for that.
Just to sum up - CHANGE_LOG for imis UDTs can be done via IBO as customization (actually this is exactly what we use to do in a past).
