So if I have a file backed loop reiserfs that is on a reiserfs will that work?

I.e. I have a file ENCRYPTED_STUFF that is my loop file containing a resierfs 
filesystem. It is stored on a partition that has a reiserfs filesystem. Is 
that ok? Reiser doesn't seem to have the data=ordered options that ext3 has.

thanks, Iain.
