since reiserfs is a transactional filesystem, i wonder whether it 
exposes a "transaction api". or if not, can i somehow control write 
caching to make several filesystem modification operations committed to 
disk as a single group? [or will this be tackled in one of reiserfs 
version 4?]

if any of the above is not possible, is there a way to do filesystem 
operations grouping so they become more reliable (all-or-nothing)?
