Considering disks as chunks and mapping zvol structure over chunks so you can use asymmetric size disks. But what ensures zraid block coverage on more than one spindle? This probably is safe for a large enough set of drives, but what is the threshold?

Is it going to be accepted upstream?

This is massive for home labbers
This sounds great, but I would like them to see them fix bugs first, like this 6yr old one, with over 160 comments: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/9130 Every new feature, esp a complex one like this, creates a potentially huge amount of new bugs. Love ZFS, but would never run it without backups. Haven’t had data lose, but needed to restore from backups to get around constant panics.
