I was looking through the new options available with the 'fsutil' command in
Vista (as you do), and stumbled across this little chap.
fsutil repair
eg
C:\Windows\system32>fsutil repair query c:
Self healing is enabled for volume c: with flags 0x1.
flags: 1 - enable general repair
8 - warn about potential data loss
Is self-healing an indispensable option to keep enabled, or is there a
performance impact involved? Would there any value in disabling it for a
particular volume (and say replacing it with a traditional scheduled
'chkdsk' check)?
I tried disabling it, and didn't notice any immediate catastrophic effect.
Ran across this article which also provides some background.

Thanks for any thoughts.
