The last time I asked Greg about this, he confirmed that vinum is not currently capable of this and that it was in the plans for the future. Unfortunately, there was some disagreement between Greg and one of the other FBSD folks recently which seemed to greatly demotivate Greg, so I don't know how much development we'll see on vinum in the near future :( dB!
