That's a pretty cool idea.  Then you've still got the entire zfs volume
inside of a file, but you're able to mount and extract individual files if
you want, and you're able to pipe your zfs send directly to zfs receive, and
basically you get all the benefits of zfs send & receive, but also get all
the benefits of being able to treat your backup like a file or a set of
files.

Pretty cool.
