I tried to indicate that it's strange that rmdir works on the snapshot
directory while files inside snapshots are immutable.
This, to me, is a bug.
If you have a snapshot named "p...@snap", this:
# rmdir /pool/.zfs/snapshot/snap
is equivalent to this:
# zfs destroy p...@snap
Similarly, this:
# mkdir /pool/.zfs/snapshot/snap
is equivalent to this:
# zfs snapshot p...@snap
This can be very handy if you want to create or destroy
a snapshot from an NFS client, for example.
