It is still a bug which should be fixed. The requirement that only the
base of a ZFS file system can be shared is a serious limitation which
will hamper or even prevent deployment of ZFS at large sites.
Simplified example: Someone may want to set up shares temporarily in a
sub directory and the requirement to create an extra ZFS file system
for that is a overkill, if not even a risk for production usage (I
consider changes in a file system setup as a far higher risk than
letting people share their data via NFS).
