Description

We might want different values of tunables like zfs_throttle_delay on different pools. Perhaps this could be accomplished by using zfs.conf.

dladm(1m) {get,set}-linkprop has the notion of private datalink properties that are prefixed with an underscore. These are typically driver-specific tunables. IIRC, they do not normally show up when listing properties, but are can be individually queried and/or set as needed.

For both consistency and (likely) simplicity, it may make sense to merely adopt a similar naming convention with per-pool (and perhaps per-dataset) properties.
