I think the best approach here is probably to keep putting journalling filesystems into /etc/fstab, but mark them noauto; traditional Unix-ish filesystems can be marked ro.
The main use for this feature is automatically making your Windows filesystems available. I really don't want to disable this if I can possibly avoid it since it's a very popular feature (we got a lot of flak for *not* doing it pre-Breezy). I think that case is probably relatively safe compared to the case of Unix filesystems; having a Windows installation that hasn't been properly shut down before doing an Ubuntu installation seems like it's going to be exceedingly rare.
