However, one related thing to keep in mind is that the zone creation and

Other distributions will have to re-implement a large amount of work if
they choose to use a different packaging system.
This may still be much less than IPS is missing in order to make it a complete
packaging system.
Actually, the image packaging system has quite a bit of functionality at
this point.
If you believe there is specific functionality with a particular use
case that isn't being addressed, please file an RFE or defect as
appropriate at http://defect.opensolaris.org under development ->
opensolaris -> pkg.
The big problem with IPS is that there is no migration strategy, so it may be
better to not migrate.
That depends on what you define as "migration" and what your specific
needs are.
