Probably the closest that could be achieved like this would be to set the 
ldiskfs reserved space on the OSTs like:

  tune2fs -m 10 /dev/sdX

That sets the root reserved space to 10% of the filesystem, and non-root users 
wouldn't be able to allocate blocks once the filesystem hits 90% full. This 
doesn't reserve specific blocks, just a percentage of the total capacity, so it 
should avoid fragmentation from the filesystem getting too full. 

Cheers, Andreas
