            Bug ID: 246856
           Summary: [zfs] ZCP feature request: permit the creation and
                    alteration of dataset properties
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bsdpr at phoe.frmug.org

I was extremely disappointed to find that it is not possible to set or alter
core or user dataset properties from a ZCP. My use case is to keep track of
snapshots managed from a ZCP: identify which snapshots were taken by my
program, when, and for what purpose. A lua function such as
zfs.sync.set_prop(Dataset, Property, Value) mirroring the effect of the "zfs
set" command would permit me to safely manage those snapshots.
