There is no need of a parallel development. I am thinking about if we need some kind of protection to avoid to destroy very easy the SOC. Running a fuse command can be much more dangerous as scrubbing NAND or erasing flash. What about to add at least a "-y" option when we write the fuses, in the same way we have for the "nand scrub command" ? This does not forbid to use the command in scripts, but it can maybe avoid to destroy the SOC when the command is wrong tipped on the console. What do you think ?
