It probably didn't ship with Woody because it was probably still considered 
experimental when Woody released.  It stopped being "experimental" a long 
time ago, but Woody is very, very old.

ext2 to ext3 and back is about as safe as filesystem conversion gets though.  
I wouldn't worry about any ill effects.
