Does this mean that as usual, we won't get this for the last stable
release (currently oneiric) nor for the last LTS (currently Lucid)?
Will it get backported or we really must rush with the OS upgrade if we
want it?

Oh, and concerning ext4 fragmentation, I find it strange that so much
fragmentation as cited above... The most fragmented ext4 FS I have is
about 8%, and strangely, another one which is almost full and its
content moderately often changed, stays low at about 2% even though I've
expected much more.
As always, if you want new features, you upgrade to the new release.
Also extents are enabled by default, but if the fs was upgraded from
ext3, then all of the files that already existed will not be using them.
You can see whether a file is using extents with lsattr.

AFAICS e4defrag is now included in e2fsprogs of precise as of a few
months ago, so I guess this can be closed for Ubuntu?

I found another tool for online defragmentation - shake-fs, see:
http://vleu.net/shake/
There are packages for Ubuntu and Debian at http://www.vleu.net/apt/ and
https://launchpad.net/~un-brice/+archive/ppa
Shake is a defragmenter that runs in userspace, without the need of patching
the kernel
For the time being the following two commands can at least reduce the
fragmentation of files:
cp -a
e2fsck -D
