They can be left as they are I guess. You can try re-establishing them in the 
patch if you see it's easy to do so with current code base.
I think it's fine requiring the user to re-start the process for the change to 
take effect, I was just pointing out that independent of that topic, there 
should be a "no foobar" for the reason I introduced.

Agree, that would be handy in general.
You could otherwise check if the link towards the HLR is ON when the VTY 
command is run, and if  that's the case, print warning stating it won't be 
applied until it is reconnected. But still save the new value in order to be 
able to save the changed config if the user desires to do so.
