[Users] ploop ext4 reserved_ratio

ext4's default 5% reserved ratio is set on ploop images.  If you update 
/etc/mke2fs.conf and adjust this ratio to say 1%, that's used when the 
ploop image is created.

This is great.

When you then resize that image though, the stock 5% is put back in 
place instead of the 1% that was on the filesystem (or whatever might be 
set in /etc/mke2fs.conf).

Is this intentional functionality for some reason, a bug, or something 
simple no one has tried before?
