What is the nature of the editing? If the only changes are setting
specific cells to null, that's one thing which d.rast.edit can't
handle. You would need to set the cells to some unused value then
subsequently change them to nulls with r.null.

If you're changing cells to non-null values, then I don't know what
the problem is.
