Can you document the feature and booting caveat in zpool-features(7) manpage? And Illumos seems to limit booting support to pools vs. datasets. Booting off of pools using skein is NOT supported -- any attempt to enable skein on a root pool will fail with an error. https://illumos.org/man/5/zpool-features
