The kernel guys have looked at soft-updates and it has been hashed out quite thoroughly years ago and it was decided that a real journaled fs was the way to go.

Soft-updates was just something BSD did when they didn't have a journaled fs. Overall I would much rather have full journaling than just soft-updates.
