I'll add it to the patch queue, probably combined with a patch to add
journal_sync_commit, and with a patch to make journal_async_commit the
default.

Good point, thanks for raising the question.

The reason why journal_async_commit wasn't turned on by default
originally was because e2fsck didn't have support for journal
checksums before e2fsprogs 1.41.0.  At this point, it seems like
turning on async_commit is the obvious (and performant) thing to do;
any objections?
