Yes, there is no hardware solution to a reset happening in the middle of
an erase operation to NAND.

Yes, it appears nobody has ever implemented a reboot notifier in the
past 5 years to solve this problem for NAND.
We are experimenting with a notifier in UBI and MTD which is a much
cleaner shutdown than just a notifier at the MTD level. UBI reboot
notifier priority needs to be shut down first and have a higher priority
than flash device. Overnight results are looking promising.
