SUSE will blacklist a number of legacy and/or less frequently used file systems by default on SLES for security reasons.
The proposed list can be seen here:

The question is now whether we should do the same for openSUSE.
The question is whether perhaps autoloading should be inhibited by default, and then a distro like SLES can *whitelist* all those that likes.
That way, people can also whitelist their favorite filesystem *without* having to edit any file that rpm installed (which, as we know, is always leading to a conflict).
I'm unsure how this would work technically, as there is no "whitelist" directive in modprobe.d files, and no blacklisting by wildcard. What we can do easily, though, is put the distro defaults under /lib/modules.d, so that users can change them any time under /etc/modules.d, similar to udev rules.
