Hi Matt, cool, thank you for doing this!
I'll still write my script since today my two shiny new 320GB USB disks will arrive :). I'll add to that the feature to first send all current snapshots, then bring down the services that depend on the filesystem, unmount the old fs, send a final incremental snapshot then zfs set mountpoint=x to the new filesystem, then bring up the services again. Hope this works as I imagine.
