This sounds fabulous.

I've recently noticed that the two features FreeBSD
is really recognized for seem to be ZFS and jails.
I think ZFS in 7.0 will be a real selling point,
and vimage could become just as much of a
release-defining feature for 8.0.

It also sounds like something that will need a lot
of baking-in before it's completely ready, so now is
definitely the time to get it into the tree for 8.0.

Good luck!
