-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 the function sanitize_post_field in wp-includes/post.php calls most of the
 "database writes" post filters (e.g. content_save_pre). if a post is
 updated or created, the function is called in a database context ('db' ==
 $context) and the $post_id argument is not passed to the "database writes"
 filters. while i understand this behavior on post creation ($post_id not
 yet available) it seems to me that on a post update the $post_id is
 readily available and could/should be passed to the filters as well.

 an example where this would be useful is a case where i want to access a
 custom field value of a post that is currently being updated from the
 function hooked into content_save_pre. in its current form without the
 $post_id argument this doesn't seem to be possible.
