Another possibility would be to add a more flexible error handling infrastructure controllable from user space. Think for example of hotpluggable devices. Either we add support for this to all subsystems or we add generic support at a higher level. A single daemon could ask the user to replug the disk or temporarily save a the dirty pages to a different device.
