I wouldn't even consider it, but that is probably because it offends my sense
of propriety. Fat32 just isn't a native Linux file system. Additionally, it is
more or less deprecated as a Win32 file system. Still, maybe you will find
someone(s) that have done it and are happy with the result. It is possible in
theory.
