Currently (0.9.0, I think) the Editor flushes the command stack when doing a save. This means that after saving the diagram we loose the ability to undo (i.e. to revert to some state before the saving). This is hardly acceptable in most scenarios (I cannot recall any modern editor -text, image, whatever- that does that).
A comment in EmfService.save() says
// For the time being, we clear the command stack after saving.
// In a later sprint we might try to implement undo/redo
// across save calls (not that easy to handle the ResourceImpl.isModified flag, which is also
// set by save() outside any command).
Anyone has any experience or any tips about this issue?

This is in for some hinstorical reasons I can unfortunatly no longer
remember. In our MOF-based version we had a command stack that was capable
of undo/redo across save operations. When we migrated to EMF the coding
snippet you found dropped in. Not sure what would be the consequences of
taking this out...
There's an open Bugzilla for this as well:
