 I've never had it format the iPod for "configuring" even after going back and 
forth between iTunes and gtkpod under Linux. I've also written to it as a 
regular usb drive after mounting it as vfat under Linux or as a USB Mass 
Storage device on Windows.

Maybe your file system was corrupted or something else that caused iTunes to 
think it was unformatted or improperly formatted?
