Agreed. And it allows you to do migrations sometime in the future with....
host1# zoneadm -z zone1 detach
host1# zfs snapshot zonepool/zo...@migrate
host1# zfs send -r zonepool/zo...@migrate \
| ssh host2 zfs receive zones/zo...@migrate
host2# zonecfg -z zone1 create -a /zones/zone1
host2# zonecfg -z zone1 attach
host2# zoneadm -z zone1 boot
