In my opinion, the best solution is to make fsck run on *shutdown*
rather than on boot-up. The rationale behind this is that people usually
turn on their computers to do something with it. At those times, people
want their computers to boot up as fast as possible.

Conversely, people usually do not shut down their computer to do
something to it. The exceptions to this are when one is going to replace
some hardware, or move a laptop around. Other than that, shutdown speed
is not as important.

Thus I believe fsck should run on shutdown by default, and there should
be an option to change its behavior if the user would prefer that.
