I think this might do your trick:

fsck_y_enable="NO"      # Set to YES to do fsck -y if the initial preen
fails.
fsck_y_flags=""         # Additional flags for fsck -y

The reason for this to get interactively is because this  might messup
with your filesystem, and you are the one responsible for your filesystem,
not us or the autmated system. So in case you want to "play" with that,
that's entirely up to you.

In addition, I can imagine that companies (been there done it) do not want
to fsck -y by default, this because of the mentioned potential corruption
and dataloss.

p.s. This was found within 5 seconds in /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
