Slightly OT but I must say I'm a big fan of ZFS since I first tried it under FreeBSD a few years back. Not only is it a dream to use as an admin, making all traditionally hard tasks easy; its also helped us identify failing hardware which nothing else has spotted. While it might be a shame to see FFS go by the wayside are there any big reasons why you would rather stick with FFS instead of moving to ZFS with all the benefits that brings? With regards protective panics I must agree, in this case it does seem there are much better paths which could be chosen.
