I'm not sure why you want to separate out all these filesystems on a root disk 
these days?  The reason I recall needing to do it over a decade ago, was 
because disks were so small and perhaps you couldn't FIT /opt onto the same 
disk with /usr.  So you needed to be able to say /usr is on this disk and /opt 
is over here on another one.

Perhaps it would be good if you explained the need for all these filesystems?

If you have apps that need a lot of space, they can have their own filesystems 
created after the OS is installed.  Like your /joker for instance, just do a 
zfs create for that after the OS install.

This is my profile:

#
#cluster                This tells what cluster of packages to install.
#                           SUNWCXall is Entire Solaris Software Group Plus OEM 
Support.
#                           SUNWCall is Entire Solaris Software Group.
#                           SUNWCprog is Developer Solaris Software Group.
#                           SUNWCuser is End User Solaris Software Group.
#                           SUNWCreq is Core System Support Software Group.

For applications which need a little space that is tightly managed to not 
impact other applications running on the same system, like 
scratch/tmp/lock-files which might go nuts, I just give them a piece of the 
TMPFS filesystem and set a limit on it's size in /etc/vfstab:

swap    -       /var/imap-proc  tmpfs   -       yes     size=512m
swap    -       /var/imap-socket  tmpfs   -       yes   size=512m
swap    -       /var/imap-log   tmpfs   -       yes     size=512m
