[chef] Re: can we force a "node save" in a "why run" mode

theres nothing stopping you from invoking a node.save. Add a handler that hooks at run_finished and then inside it check if its why run mode and invoke node.save.

but as brian said, this is a very very bad idea,

 whole point of why run is to not change anything ...just to estimate what will be updated

Currently we don't get a node save if we run in WhyRun mode. I was wondering if there was a way to force a "node save" in this mode?
Thanks.
