The docs only says this: "gjournal only supports UFS2". It does not
specifically say that you cannot have per-slice journaling. However,
since you could have other filesystems on your slice, I bet that slice
based journaling is not supported.
Consider this: how would you journal an NTFS file system (and then boot
windows after an unclean shutdown?) Another tricky question: why would
you journal a SWAP partition?
Best,
