Although this is documented in the release notes for 9.3, I did not find any
other bugzilla entry referring to it. As the problem wqrt JFS and SuSE Linux 9.3
has been solved (see below), but just didn't make the cut-off for 9.3, maybe
there's a chance the fix will make it into 10.0?  Or later.

JFS won't be supported by SUSE in the SL10.0 release.  So, it won't be available from  
the installer.

The patch that Dave wants to have is in SL9.3 already, except for this hunk:

I'm not sure this matters. 
And no, we'll not offer JFS from YaST.
