My opinion is that it should work and people should try it, of course
keeping the experimental status of ZFS in 7.0 in mind all the time.

It's just a matter of improving /etc/rc.d/mountd script, I guess.
In my opinion it would be best to start mountd as a dependency if it's
not enabled in rc.conf, but there are some ZFS file systems with
sharenfs!=off. Then we would start mountd (and other damons needed for
NFS export to work) with /etc/zfs/exports file only.
