Anybody tried this sort of thing?

 I did a quick trial. My newish Sony Google/Android/whatsit TV ignored
the f2fs stick, my Samsung phone "helpfully" offered to format the f2fs
stick, probably to exFAT. Extra annoying as the phone uses f2fs on its
internal storage so the support is there.
 So f2fs might be nice and all but it seems, with this experiment, that I
can't think of a supported use case for an f2fs formatted USB stick or
SD card.
 Did you have some use in mind?
  

The support was removed in my distro (openSUSE) because the specs changed on every release of the distro, and a stick formatted one year would be unreadable the next year or something of the sort.
I see the sources in the kernel, but not compiled.
