Sorry, I didn't want to remove the posix compatibility to ntfs, just to make an option so that the user could choose what to do. Adding such option would certainly not affect who wants to use posix ntfs, and would benefit users who wants to use it in a windows way, because they use windows as their primary os.
In my opinion most users, except advanced users, would switch to this option, since they only use the partition as a document storage. If you really don't want to add this option, I hope that someone will implement it, since I have never worked with filesystem drivers. Or at least if ntfs-3g will be included by default, as the spec wants to, a warning could save users who don't know this. I didn't understand if you are against this warning, too. Your example of rar files is not so valid, since you can easily install rar and use those files... On the other hand instead it is not easy to discover that to use these files in windows you need a non-popular software, that is not easy to install for normal users because it asks some advanced questions I'm definitely not agaistn posix in ntfs. it is very interesting, and I will use it now that I know WSfU! Just please inform the users about this software! Some questions about POSIX usage: how can I change permissions and owners? how can I map unix users to windows users for permissions in windows?
