The reason I wrote te below is not that I'm totally daft, I know ZFS
could have had expandability for any vdev included, but didn't. But I
read this piece on Expand-O-Matic ZFS (a dream of a future ZFS property)
by Adam Lewenthal (sp??), written in 2008. And I really just wonder if
it happened somewhere, somehow.

setting up a new raidz1 of another N or more disks, it's just a minor
need, so I need N+1 disks, rather than just N.
Can this be done w/o losing the data on the original zpool?
And on a similar note: Suppose I have a signgle disk with data, and I
decide I can just afford a raidz1 of 4 disks, so I buy 3 more.... can
I somehow migrate the data on the original single disk onto a 3 disk
raidz1 and then add the original disk to that raidz?
