You are probably right - it would be an interesting exercise if it could
be done though . .
It's pretty good.
You could file a bug against e2fsprogs in RHBZ. But I think you'll get a faster response just going direct to the linux-ext4 list.
Are there any kernel messages at the time of the original problem? Complete dmesg preferred.
smartctl -x /dev/ as well.
And et them know e2fsprogs version.
