I'd prefer to stick with JFS or ext3

AFAIK *not* jfs, but you can share an ext3fs slice with the system.
AFAIK, you cannot install a *BSD on en ext*** file system.
But you can keep the ffs*(OBSD), ufs**(FBSD), zfs**(Solaris) for the ON (Solaris acronyms for
Operating system and
Networking).
I have such a setup with all data, shared files, home, DB, www, distfiles, /usr/ports, /var/db/portsnap, ... on ext2fs systems ("extended partitions").
AFAIK, only need ON to be on the native filesystem.
All the rest are data (the stuff which is personal to you and you surely not want to lose). Data can be housed wherever you like, even a thumbdrive.
Thumbdrive readable by any ON, just have to chown UID/GID.
