Sharing ZFS Zpools and Filesystems Between 7.1-STABLE and 8.0-CURRENT

Would unwise to use the same ZFS zpools on a 7.1 and 8.0 system, at 
different times of course? I've done this on my testbed without any 
repercussions however I don't really care if I lose data on my testbed. I'm 
about to attempt this on my laptop which does contain data I do want to 
keep. Given that the ZFS code in -STABLE and -CURRENT are to a degree 
different, would there be any risk? If so can I manage that risk in any way?
