Is converting ext3 to ext4 also a supported use case in fedora-land?

According to the ext4-wiki 

  tune2fs -O extents -E test_fs /dev/DEV

(and then remounting as ext4dev) should work.

Also is there (going to be) any sort of online defragmentation support
to make a converted ext4 use extends for all files?
