While I had this working in 8.0-BETA1 upon reboot I would loose data from entire mountpoints on the root pool. First it was /usr/ports, not a big deal. Then it was /var/db/pkg.. the system had no idea what was installed and what wasn't. This was a test machine, so no harm, no foul. I would definatley not recommend this AT ALL. Just my 2 cents, YMMV, etc.
