Yes, that's the scenario for the mockups I posted, anyway... if the requirements are bogus, then of course we'll have to change them :) My original mockup did allow you to create a pool/filesystem on the fly if required, but it felt like the wrong place to be doing that-- if you could understand the dialog to do that, you would probably know how to do it better on the command line anyway. Longer term, I guess we might be wanting to ship some sort of ZFS management GUI that might be better suited to that sort of thing (maybe like the Nexenta app that Roman mentioned earlier, but I haven't really looked at that yet...)
