Only having dladm show it, and not be able to affect it, seems quite
inconsistent.
As Dan pointed out, there are already other commands such as
ifconfig(1M) and mount(1M) which manipulate or observe resources
assigned to a zones so using dladm(1M) wouldn't be that inconsistent.
Yes, but those provide for manipulation (aka change) and observability
in the same place.

Wouldn't this set a precedent that other things be available as -o?
E.g. -o uuid, -o brand, ...
Only introducing '-o datalinks' and never introducing any other -o
specifiers bit instead moveingto an info subcommand for subsequent ones
seems odd.
If you commit to adding other -o specifiers in short order, then I can
see the benefit of introducing '-o datalinks' as part of IP Instances.
If not, then this seems like a dead end to me.
