There's no unequivocal answer to such questions. A newer MacFUSE
codebase is likely to have more/better features and fewer old bugs,
but it may or may not have new issues. Your mileage may vary. The most
important thing to realize is that the prerelease codebase can be
quite volatile sometimes--you might see several developer releases
during some days.

I don't know, but I don't think so. The goal in MacFUSE is to maintain
backwards compatibility, so ntfs-3g, or any other file system known to
work with MacFUSE for that matter, should just continue to work. If
things do break, people should report it.

Simply remove the com.google.macfuse.plist file. The autoinstaller
would then begin seeing the latest non-developer release as the one it
wants to "upgrade" you to.
