I'm definitely in favour of this, but wonder if this should just become part
of ext2fs_open2(), so that other tools also get the benefit of this change?
That could be done only if the superblock number and blocksize are zero.

Should this also try at least a few backup superblocks (e.g. {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} *
blocksize * 8)?

Also, e2fsck/util.c::get_backup_sb() does something very similar.  In "main()"
this is called just before calling try_open_fs(), which you've updated below.
If ext2fs_try_open() also tried backup superblocks then get_backup_sb() wouldn't
be needed at all.
