Subject: removal of grpid option from ext4

The removal of this option puzzles me.  It's extremely useful in an 
academic environment like ours, where different groups of researchers 
work in shared project spaces.  I'd like to migrate our data partitions 
to ext4.  If this option is going to disappear, I will have to seriously 
consider keeping current and new project spaces as ext3.

Thanks for considering my viewpoint,
--John
