These features are readily available right now on FreeBSD.

Well with 2 downsides,

Once you actually try and implement these solutions, you'll see that
your "downsides" are largely figments of your imagination.

So if it is my imagination, how can I actually convert UFS to ZFS easily? Everybody seems to say that this is easy and that is easy.

When you look at this from a single point then you might be right. But next thing in my agenda is to provide restore services to hosting customers. Now when I use a commercial solution like r1soft backup, I can just install the plugin for the control panel software (like cPanel or H-Sphere).

If it is imagination and things are so easy, I can give you $500(r1soft pricing) for every 5servers I have, and you can give the same features that r1soft gives, deal? I have no doubt that similar solution can be achieved on FreeBSD. If you sit and think for a second, the problem is the amount of time, resources and knowledge it requires to do the same solution in FreeBSD is way higher than if one was using Linux.

You are right, my mistake. But it supports the most commonly used Linux filesystems, still better than changing to a brand new filesystem. But sorry for the mistake.

Thanks,
