I actually meant e2fsprogs. Bad manual copy/paste operation.

But I was just looking for the wrong word ("online"). Looking for
"mounted" gives the following (yeah, I know, it's the top of the
description, I should just have read on):

 The resize2fs program will resize ext2 or ext3 file systems.  It can be
 used  to  enlarge or shrink an unmounted file system located on device.
 If the filesystem is mounted, it can be used to expand the size of  the
 mounted filesystem, assuming the kernel supports on-line resizing.  (As
 of this writing, the Linux  2.6  kernel  supports  on-line  resize  for
 filesystems mounted using ext3 only.).

So you're totally right.
