The purpose of it is to support Windows interoperability; if that's
not particularly needful, I would certainly not bother.

I'd primarily consider, for Linux-based filesystems, ext3, and perhaps XFS/JFS.

Reiserfs would not be high on my list; with the incarceration of the
author, ongoing maintenance could be problematic, to say the least!

I'm very interested in what's happening with (ext4, nilfs, ocfs2), but
all of those are a bit too new to be considered stable just yet.
