Ah, upon looking more at the bsdinstall(8) scripts (/usr/libexec/bsdinstall/*)
and subroutines (/usr/share/bsdconfig/*) I found that the "input" variable is
called VAR_NONINTERACTIVE, not NONINTERACTIVE, as mentioned by the mail I
previously referred to.

Still, if not set, this should be set in /usr/libexec/bsdinstall/script,
perhaps something like,

  if [ "$ZFSBOOT_DISKS" ]; then
          case "$VAR_NONINTERACTIVE" in
                  0|[Nn][Oo]|[Oo][Ff][Ff]|[Ff][Aa][Ll][Ss][Ee]) : do nothing ;;
                  *) export VAR_NONINTERACTIVE="YES"
          esac
          bsdinstall zfsboot
  else
          bsdinstall scriptedpart "$PARTITIONS"
  fi
