time-slider is based on a project by Tim Foster called zfs-auto-snapshot,
and it had it's own user base and community before time-slider came along.
Doesn't sound like you used it before though.

Hmm. This should have worked right out of the box then. Was it a fresh

If I was to guess I'd say that something clobbered your /etc/user_attr
file and didn't preserve it's contents.
