I think whoever told you this was right.  Let it break.

We cannot add pre- and post-hooks all ever the place for brain-dead
designs that need to do this and that before and after doing perfectly
things.

It makes no sense adding this to saveenv, because there will be othe
rplaces in the code that need to to the same - like if it's NAND
flash, you will probabaly need to do the same for all NAND related
commands.

cmd_nvedit.c is definitely the wrong place for this.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
