I'm a kernel guy.  We already ship all of these filesystems.  People
already do installs with all of them.  Really, it's more about what we
consider _sane_ as the default for most users that don't know the
difference, and not about shipping them in general.

I don't think the support aspect is going to change much either way.
The only thing I see possibly happening is more focus on btrfs, but I
know my team isn't in a position to spend any significant amount of
time on that right now.
