It would slow the boot too much for people to want it to be the default..

..which in turn invoke memories of Scandisk halting in the middle, claiming uncorrectable, and Windoze not booting anymore

..and, if you boot with the checkfs code on a usb boot it automatically re-boots once done and you get stuck in an endless loop.

If the user doesn't touch the keyboard, dsl boots normally, if he presses arrow down and enter on the grub boot menu it checks the fs.
Ubuntu checks automatically the fs.

I usually add a checkfs menu line to my grub installs so I see what you are suggesting. Will add this to my TODO list.
