Hum yeah you are right.  I don't think it would be possible then as all the
old etc/root fs restrictions still apply.  On the other hand, if you must
have this what's the drawback to simply snapshotting your root fs? Of course
this is much more ideal if you use a ZFS structure like MFSBSD's default
rather the ZFS file system layout presented in the wiki.
