Op was probably referring to encryption being integrated into the ZFS
data pipeline, not on top of geli/gdbe:
http://open-zfs.org/wiki/Projects#Platform_agnostic_encryption_support

In Oracle Solaris this is available, see
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/manage-zfs-encryption-1715034.html

IIRC this work has started before Oracle took over Sun, but it has not
been open sourced yet.

I'd be very surprised to see something like this hit the tree anytime soon.

Best regards
