I'd have preferred that Ubuntu's zfsutils be patched to attempt to load
the kernel module as needed since that change means that now any
documentation telling the user to use "zpool create" or similar zfs
commands will fail unless the user manually plays with modprobe...

That very much feels like a regression to me. I understand the reason
for not always loading the module, but having the tools attempt to load
it would have achieved the same thing without breaking every single tool
which uses the zfs tools in the process.
