(a) softdep is complex. *very* complex.
(b) softdep doesn't solve the problems of fast reboots after crash
(c) softdep doesn't allow replaying changes for off-site synchronisation

help for those filesystems we can't add a journaling later on top.
But having native journaling support can be much better.
