There is value to putting this functionality in zpool for the same 
reason that it was useful to put 'iostat' and other "duplicate" 
functionality in zpool.  For example, zpool can skip disks which are 
already currently in use, or it can recommend whole disks (rather than 
partitions) if none of the logical disk partitions are currently in 
use.

The zfs commands are currently at least an order of magnitude easier 
to comprehend and use than the legacy commands related to storage 
devices.  It would be nice if the zfs commands will continue to 
simplify what is now quite obtuse.
