Yep, I'd like 'em too - they would make the snapshot-GUI stuff I was
mumbling about a while ago[1] a lot easier to implement.
Here we'd just ask for a "zfs view" with a filter specifying the view to
contain contents changed between the creation date of <this snapshot>
and <that snapshot>.
Right now, all I can do is show each snapshot in it's own window. I was
thinking that RFE 6425091 or 6370738 was what I was waiting for, but
views would make this even easier to implement.
cheers,
