AFAICS, the max filesystem size and the nanosecond timestamping are the
only marginally interesting features.
Besides, I doubt if ext4 will never make into openSUSE:
- lack of customer requests.
- doesn't really meet any needs that cannot be handled by other
file systems in the distro
- Novell QA is not testing ext4 nor are any of Novells partners.
- If you run into a problem with ext4, there is no support available
from the openSUSE kernel maintainers.

I am more interested in when ext4 will coming online. (Some features
of ext4 have been available since kernel 2.6.13, at least.)
