I would strongly discourage putting zfs-utils into a snap. I expect many systems admins running zfs storage arrays do not install snapd, and would be loathe to do so.

LXD is doing snaps, perhaps for zfs this is the best approach as well. Xenial still has zfsutils on generation 0.6, with the module on 0.7. Even when patches are applied as needed that approach has its limitations. E.g. the Bionic cycle might possibly see 2 major zfs releases, who'll say.
