Entities spawned/changed from commands should never despawn

I'd like it if the entities that are spawned from commands will not despawn because it might be a bit annoying for people who like to mess around with commands and entities.

    No! This has a lot of potential for bad things to happen! If you don't want a summoned entity to despawn, give it a nametag!

    There's already an nbt tag to prevent entities that were summoned from despawning, its called "PersistanceRequired" If you set it to one, the entity you just summoned will not despawn, and you should be fine. 

    So, in a way, this is already a feature in minecraft.

    you can add tags to your Mob preventing Command Spawned Mobs from Despawning. MC Stacker would be a helpful tool.
