I think that given that data journal is barely tested at all (and I would prefer to deprecate it) it is better to take the easier way and just ignore the flag. Not sure how much work will it require to disable delalloc per file, but this approach seems more obvious for me. And even if we do that and honor JOURNAL_DATA set on an individual file in delalloc mode (which is the default) I bet that it would be entirely untested, if not even unused.
