Well, for now I went with that option anyway (zpool offline, gmirror
remove, glabel stop, then disklabel, then zpool online etc).

It would be interesting to hear though if there is a technical reason
why the foot shooting flag does not apply to non-rank providers. If
I'm missing something please enlighten me, but the particular use case
of writing a boot strap on a slice is presumably not very unusual at
all so I think it is something that ought to be possible to do.
