I'm defining "zpool split" as the ability to divide a pool into 2
separate pools, each with identical FSes. The typical use case would
be to split a N disk mirrored pool into a N-1 pool and a 1 disk pool,
and then transport the 1 disk pool to another machine.

While contemplating "zpool split" functionality, I wondered whether we
really want such a feature because

1) SVM allows it and admins are used to it.

or

2) We can't do what we want using zfs send |zfs recv

Right now, it's looking mightly close to 1.

Comments appreciated as always. Thanks. :)
