a couple monthes ago Steve said it looked like it would be pretty easy
to do, and without breaking backward compatibilty (since older
implementations would simply ignore the bits). he just doesn't really
have time, someone with a little experience in the XFS code could
probably do it though.
immutable, append-only, and the S (sync) bits would be the useful ones.
