Fair enough.

I'm all for proposals to get rid of some knobs, too, if we don't think
they serve a purpose.  Recent examples that we've started deprecated
include minixdf --- and I really wonder if we need t have explicit
mount options to enable xattr and acl's.  Anyone object if we just
enable them all the time by default?
