Shrinking pools would also solve the right-sizing dilemma.

I'm using opensolaris and zfs at my house for my photography storage
as well as for an offsite backup location for my employer and several
side web projects.
I have an 80g drive as my root drive. I recently took posesion of 2
74g 10k drives which I'd love to add as a mirror to replace the 80 g
drive.
From what I gather it is only possible if I zfs export my storage
array and reinstall solaris on the new disks.
So I guess I'm hoping zfs shrink and grow commands show up sooner or
later.
Just a data point.

zfs send is great for moving a filesystem with lots of tiny files,
since it just handles the blocks :)
I'd like to see:
pool-shrinking (and an option to shrink disk A when i want disk B
to
become a mirror, but A is a few blocks bigger)
This may be interesting... I'm not sure how often you need to
shrink a
pool though? Could this be classified more as a Home or SME level
feature?
install to mirror from the liveCD gui
I'm not working on OpenSolaris at all, but for when my projects
installer is more ready /we/ can certainly do this..
zfs recovery tools (sometimes bad things happen)
Agreed.. part of what I think keeps zfs so stable though is the
complete
lack of dependence on any recovery tools.. It forces customers to
bring
up the issue instead of dirty hack and nobody knows.
automated installgrub when mirroring an rpool
This goes back to an installer option?
