Using something like tar to take a backup forgoes the ability to do things like 
the clever incremental backups that ZFS can achieve though; e.g. only backing 
the few blocks that have changed in a very large file rather than the whole 
file regardless. If 'zfs send' doesn't do something we need to fix it rather 
than avoid it, IMO.
