Other than /var/tmp my short list for being separate ZFS datasets are:
/var/crash - because can be big and we might want quotas.

Hmn we have that alr

In other words, let people have a system with just one filesystem.
I'm fine with that.
I think we have lots of options but it might be nice to come up with a
short list of special/important directories that would should always
recommend be separate datasets -

I left a comment on Lori's blog to the effect that splitting the
namespace would complicate LU tools. Perhaps we need a zfs clone -r to
match zfs snapshot -r?

We're also updating the EIS bootdisk standard, and are considering similar
recommendations.
File systems are still not free. They have costs in complexity and
maintenance, especially backup/restore. One of the benefits of a single
namespace is that it is relatively simple to backup and restore

With reference to Lori's blog posting[1] I'd like to throw out a few of
my thoughts on spliting up the namespace.
This is quite timely because only yesterday when I was updating the ZFS
crypto document I was thinking about this. I knew I needed ephemeral
key support for ZVOLs so we could swap
