Is the following behaviour wanted?

If a filesystem is listed in /etc/fstab, but currently not mounted, e2fsadm
checks for the availability of ext2online, and if it doesn't find it, it 
aborts with an error message. The check is in e2fsadm.c, lines 275ff.

IMHO it doesn't matter if a fs is mentioned in fstab. If it's not mounted,
we can resize it without ext2online.
