Good question.  There's no consensus upstream to drop the "dev" from
"ext4dev" yet, so it may remain as a boot option for this release, yet.

I think it may technically require a fedora "feature" change to to drop
the boot argument at this point, but I'm not certain...

It certainly won't be switched in as the *default* for F10, though.
