As I mentioned previously, ZFS handles this gracefully in the sense that
it doesn't allow two pools with the same GUID to exist on the system.

As long as they appear as separate devices under Solaris, ZFS will
handle this today.

What hasn't been implemented?  As far as I can tell, this is a request
for the previously mentioned RFE (ability to change GUIDs on import).
I'm not sure what you mean by an unimplemented RFE being "nor even
tested".
