Subject: flex_bg with tune2fs posible?

Hi!

I had converted an ext3 filesystem to ext4 long ago but comparing it's
features with the ones found on a newly formatted ext4 filesystem I found
that I had these features missing:
flex_bg huge_file dir_nlink extra_isize

Current doc at ext4.wiki.kernel.org says: "There are additional ext4
features, such as flex_bg and > 16TB filesystem support that can only
be enabled at format time via mke2fs."

I did activate all these 4 without any problem (2.6.38 with 1.41.12
e2fsprogs) is the doc old and doesn't reflect that this is now possible?

Or have I done something I'll regret?

So far the filesystem seems ok (e2fsck doesn't detect any problems) and
files seem ok as well.

Regards...
