SuSE defaulted to reiserfs for quite a while even though it had a

I can't say anything about ext4 yet, but I tend to wait to use
things like this until they've been out long enough to shake all
the bugs out.  I have seen far too many cases where the term
``bleeding edge'' is too accurate.

Good decisions should be rewarded and bad decisions should be
punished. The market does just that with its profits and losses.
