Snapshots are made for things like system administration. Upgrade borked your system? Just rollback. Want to use the last version of your firewall config? I wrote a utility you might like to try, httm[1], which allows you to restore from your snapshot-ed unique versions. If you like ZFS, then trust me you have to have ZFS on root.
