Agreed. I don't understand why this mode has been made the default. SU 
always works fine for me but SU+J always causes corrupted filesystems 
which it never bothers to fix either in the background or the 
foreground.  I have to disable the journal and manually fsck it to get a 
clean filesystem once again.  Seems completely flawed.
