Having faced a serious ZFS crash I dug into ZFS internals & design some time 
ago so I'll permit to drop some thoughs here : the zpool metadata information 
may be corrupted and pool not to show up. This seems quite bad but there are 
now tools to rollback over uberblocks (that contain the core data of your 
pool). Loosing a pool forever is highly unlikely

| and looking at the code [1] it doesn't look like it uses -f.

I do agree this

| shouldn't go into puppet. but that's how I seperate things and others
| might have reasons to do differently.

definitively a +1

Nico.
