I am assuming there are some official specs - otherwise how can someone say "we 
don't
support JFS as root filesystem" and close the bugreport with that reasoning?  So
somewhere there must be a list of what is supported and what isn't?

No, this is different Christoph.  My initial issue back then was lack of 
Installer support
for creating JFS file systems - at the time I was led to believe that the 
installed
system should be able to boot off JFS, but now when I report that it can't, I'm 
told it's
also not supported.  
When I opened bug #115227, it was primarily because I'd recognised that a 
possible fix was
a mere 4 extra characters in INITRD_MODULES.   

Back to patches - let's assume I go fix this problem such that the Installer 
properly
recognises that the root filesystem is JFS and can correct INITRD_MODULES to 
include
"jfs".  Seeing as the bug report was effectively rejected with "not supported", 
why would
my patch be accepted??
