            Bug ID: 295619
           Summary: ZFS boot environment rollback can revert files in
                    /root
           Product: Base System
           Version: 16.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rbranco@suse.com

The default bsdinstall ZFS layout does not create a separate /root dataset.  As
a result, /root is stored inside the boot environment root dataset.

/root may contain data such as SSH keys, scripts, patches, notes, etc. Rolling
back to an earlier boot environment may changes made under /root.
