After stabbing around in the code for a while I found that parameter
substitution happens so early that for non-jid bound jails this
parameter will not be set until much later with the create_jail call and
thus would need special handling in load_config. Code for substituting
just the $jid variable would need to be duplicated from load_config and
reapplied just in case the jid was not set.

Still I agree, it's the much nicer approach, if it works.

The easy things like adding a zfs dataset parameter and the postcreate
command can be found here:
