I tried JFS for a couple of months, but one big problem I ran into with

Only ext2/3 and reiserfs are the only linux filesystems which can safely
be resized smaller. All of them can be sized up. Reiser, XFS and JFS all
can be increased online while ext2/3 must be unmounted first.
that is no longer the case.
one can now grow an ext2/3 filesystem while mounted using the command
ext2online (rhel 4 stock kernel) ymmv
