Two reasons against renaming:

If lost+found has to find a new name, so does fsck-objects.
I'm sorry, but that is bull. The problem here isn't the conventional
naming, it's that you're implementing your filesystem on top of another
filesystem, and you're running into a layering conflict.
- lost+found has a special meaning, granted. So, a backup would not be
made of it. So what? I *don't* want it backup'ed. I want to repair what
was wrong with it. When I repaired it, the result is stored somewhere
else. To backup lost+found would make as much sense as to backup /tmp.
The default should ALWAYS be no data loss.
