Why is this hunk here? Just for convenience, right? Technically
there's no reason why we can't relax the location of the inode tables
and bitmap blocks without going to meta_bg. My inclination is to keep
the options as orthogonal as possible, and use mke2fs.conf to allow
the user to conveniently set up filesystems with the appropriate
configuration parameters.
