My application-layer file management avoided the issues. To be honest, I didn't even know what they were other than a lack of FSCK. Problems happened, they were corrected, and so on. It's an attitude I learned from research into cluster storage and safety-critical systems.
That said, this does seem to be a big problem for anyone depending on XFS by itself. Sounds like filesystem developers should dig in and fix that zero's problem among any other that are known. Just seems wasteful to ditch such a good, battle-hardened filesystem over a few bugs. Better to just fix them.
