One advantage would be that it would be easier for reiserfs to track changes
in the mainline kernel (because people making changes to the rest of the
kernel can more easily see how they might break reiserfs). I personally
intend to move to ext3 (for backwards compatibility reasons), but I'd rather
see both reiserfs and ext3 merged as soon as possible---both are more stable
than, for instance, ufs or ntfs, which are both in the mainline kernel
despite regularly munching filesystems. The EXPERIMENTAL flag is there for a
reason, after all...
