I dislike making commands more verbose then needed, or helpful. Of course the latter may be considered a matter of taste, but first of all you also add code size here for questionable benefit. I object against this patch: 1) I cannot see what is so special in the "sf" command that it needs such handling, while commands accessing NOR or NAND flash or SDCard or any other storage devices don't. If there is an agreement that this feature should be added, then it should be done in a general way that can be used everywhere. [Note that I doubt that "if".] 2) The code size hurts (at least in some cases). Such code should be optional. Please make it configurable.
