Well no,  I posted the question because that doesn't do it.

zfs list -r rpool

  [...]
  rpool/dump                1.50G   292G  1.50G  -
  rpool/export              15.9G   292G    21K  /export
  rpool/export/home         15.9G   292G    22K  /export/home
  rpool/export/home/reader  15.9G   292G  11.5G  /export/home/reader
  [...]

# zfs snapshot -r rp...@somedate
# zfs snapthot rpool/someotherdate

 cd /rpool/.zfs/snapshot
  diff -r somedate someotherdate

No difference, and there is no 
            rpool/dump
            rpool/export
            rpool/export/home
            rpool/export/home/reader

under either snapshot... not to mention all the other stuff shown with 
  zfs list -r rpool
that I snipped.
