Perhaps this has been mentioned before. If so, sorry. IMHO, it would be
useful to integrate a call to badblocks in the fsck/mkfs.reiser* programs
so that more thorough disk checking can be done at format time. Sort of
like the option e2fsck -c. If this is added, the output could be fed
immediately to the reiser format program and badblocks spared prior to
filesystem use.

both mkfs.reiserfs and fsck.reiserfs have -B option to accept list of bad
blocks. We thought that should be enough.
It really should. Why bother with a patch? Just write a wrapper script
that runs badblocks and passes in the list to mkfs.
