I'm sorry, I think I wasn't very clear in my question. It isn't the
default in Arch Linux because it isn't the default upstream,
Probably because we just set "defaults" in fstab and let the user worry
about the rest.
but why it
isn't the default upstream?

I think it's because Arch doesn't use SELinux by default, as it's mostly for
ACLs.
Neither selinux nor ACL have anything to do with this options. Read man
5 attr.

I just got a little worried though. Is there any reason for user_xattr not
being enabled by default?
Not sure, you may ask the ext2/3/4 developers. I usually enable it on
/home, but not on other partitions. IIRC, SuSE enables it

Thank you Thomas and Xavier.
I just got a little worried though. Is there any reason for user_xattr not
being enabled by default?

I've tried doing the following:

Hi all,
I'm thinking of different ways to organize my files and xattrs seem a
nice, standardized way to do so (don't ask me exactly what I'm trying to
do, for I only have a slight idea).
The problem is: I can't use them at all. I'm using the default kernel,
which, according to /proc/config.gz has
11 matches
