Along these lines you can envision a restore tool that is capable of reading multiple 'zfs send' streams to construct the various versions of files which are available. In addition, it would be nice if the tool could read in the streams and then make it easy to traverse and construct a single file from all available streams. For example, if I have 5 send streams then the tool would be able to ingest all the data and provide a directory structure similar to .zfs which would allow you to restore any file which is completely intact.

In essence, this is how HSM works (qv ADM project).  You get a view of the
file system for which the data in the files may reside on media elsewhere.
Good stuff.
