Yes you do.  Well, maybe not explicitly a vote, but you do have a say.
When support for JFS disappeared in 10.0 (I believe it was), I spent
quite a lot of time arguing why and how it should be reinstated.  In
10.1 JFS was back as a supported root filesystem, and with 10.2 JFS is
now back as install-filesystem, even if officially unsupported. I very
humbly believe that is at least partially because of my insisting on
it.

Perhaps openSUSE is not yet quite what'd you'd call a community distro,
but it's well under way there.  Just think of the amount of time we
spend talking/arguing/thinking/cursing/worrying about it.
