Users don't know that redhat doesn't apply our bugfixes, and when they use redhat and decide to experiment with reiserfs, they encounter bugs and conclude that RedHat is right to not support reiserfs, which is exactly the redhat intended effect. Fedora is something new. It is good that fedora tracks the mainline. Kudos for that. You should do that with RHEL.
