Alternatively, with ZFS boot, we could make use of snapshots before an apt-get

I think this is at least worth considering if we really want to encourage
developers to use this.

Yep, I agree - I've got this working with that zfs-bootadm.sh script[1]
that I wrote a while back - basically allows you to clone your zfs-root
environment, and manages entries in menu.lst to let you choose which one
to boot.

It's *really* useful to be able to have multiple LiveUpgrade-like boot
environments running on the same system.

Wonderful!
