Hi,
I asked this question about a month ago, and the answer is roughly
"It's theoretically possible with minor feature implementations to
btrfs, though nobody's done it yet"

Is it possible, with current btrfs:
- to take a rootfs snapshot (i.e. prior to a major update),
- do changes in the root filesystem (i.e. install major update),
- if we don't like what the major update did to the system (rootfs),
"rollback" the snapshot and make it the "original" rootfs again
