Yes, I think he meant that. Maybe you could just put a message to be printed 
when reiser4progs 1.x is being installed: "Make sure you checked your reiser4 
partition(s) if upgrading to this version of reiser4progs from 0.5.x: 
avoiding to do this may lead to data loss!". This could be made interactive 
(i.e., "Type 'Yes' to continue"). 

Just a thought :)
