You didn't mention ext4.
Fedora 11, released this week, defaults to ext4.
But: grub doesn't understand ext4, so (I think) they default to
creating a /boot partition of some other type.
Shades of System V release 4 on x86: that could not boot from their
default file system, so they had a special simple files system type
for /boot: bfs.
