I lost 15G from ext4 fsck failures tonight!

I moved some data off of a 115G ext4 filesystem on an LVM logical volume. 
Then I resized the ext4 filesystem.  Unfortunately, 15G of the remaining 95G
in data was lost to /lost+found due to repeated fsck errors.

I have also had the problem of ext4 destroying my kde4 configuration files
so that my kde4 desktop would revert back to the defaults occasionally.

I don't see what the benefit of ext4 really is, when data loss doesn't seem
to be a concern among ext4 developers.  I would expect that data loss should
be the primary concern.

I am most likely going to move back to ext3 or else to some other stable
filesystem like xfs.
