Not to diminish Set's original request, but to address this comment...
I guess your term "knee-jerk reaction" is subjective. I'd much rather
have a recoverable system than an unrecoverable one, which is exactly
what you'll have if the filesystem is put into an unstable state
(corruption) and isn't intelligent enough to protect itself from further
damage. It's also one of the reasons we won't use anything other than
XFS in a production environment.
