When ext3 was new, I am pretty certain that I have read quotes by
Theodore T'so that he does not recommend turning off the checks. It's
been a long time though, and searching now turns up nothing definitive
for me.

I find the long-standing insecurity abut this topic very weird, though.
If an important ext3-using distro like Ubuntu asked the ext3 team,
wouldn't they get an answer quickly? I would think so.
