My main reason for suggesting this is that it seems Canonical is easier on snaps wrt. having rolling upgrades. I don't see a reason debs can't do it, but I notice over and over again Canonical is very conservative upgrading major software versions on debs (which is no criticism, just a constatation).

LXD is doing snaps, perhaps for zfs this is the best approach as well. Xenial still has zfsutils on generation 0.6, with the module on 0.7. Even when patches are applied as needed that approach has its limitations. E.g. the Bionic cycle might possibly see 2 major zfs releases, who'll say.
