    zfs create -o version=N pool/filesystem

is possible to implement into a future version of ZFS a "released" send command, like:

# zfs send -r2 <snap> ...

to send a specific release (version 2 in the example) of the metadata?

I just created a RFE for this problem in general: 6882134. I'm not sure the above suggestion is the best way to solve the problem, but we do need some kind of support for inter-version send stream readability.

I haven't see this specific problem, but it occurs to me thus:

For the reverse of the original problem, where (say) I back up a 'zfs send' stream to tape, then later on, after upgrading my system, I want to get that stream back.

Does 'zfs receive' support reading a version X stream and dumping it into a version X+N zfs filesystem?

If not, frankly, that's a higher priority than the reverse.
