The good news is that the quirks are usually fairly minor. I do prefer a userspace tool since that makes these things much easier to debug, and some chips have features that don't map well to the MTD interfaces such as block locking or top block swap.
yes, I guess in the end we have seen that MTD is nice, but that the userspace tool gives us flexibility we like.
So far from what I have seen user space is good for quick hacks, and the mtd code base looks a lot better for long term maintenance.
