assuming one would like to use ZFS - it is of course right. As with any 
other filesystem.

Even more - no matter what filesystem i would use i would never want to 
put tens of disks as one filesystem. for simple reason of recovery and 
reliability.

And i consider FreeBSD loader already overcomplex. having separate 
partition for boot stuff is just fine. After kernel is loaded it takes 
care of all stuff.
