Although for volatile volumes in particular it might be possible to
get away with (optionally, configured per-volume) attempting to set
the nocow flag and ignoring any failures. Not sure if even that is
worth implementing though, when it's already possible to configure a
dedicated nocow pool for those volumes.

The filesystem specificity I was thinking of is a bigger issue with
other (snap_on_start or save_on_stop) volume types. E.g. on Btrfs you
can only do a reflink ioctl if the source and destination files have
the same nocow status - a notion that is perfectly captured by making
the whole pool directory nocow or not, without any convoluted logic in
the file-reflink driver.
