Kirk McKusick has been working for the last year or so on
a combination of "soft-updates" (complete) and "snapshots"
(not released yet), once complete FFS will have the equivelant
of logging AND snapshots like the netapp appliance.

In so far as codebase there is the LFS project, currently 
fixed (afaik) in NetBSD, perhaps porting that to FreeBSD
would be worthwhile.
