ZFS testing/debugging is a little wider than that as it is also being used on FreeBSD.
EDIT: It will be used on Mac OS too so the testing and use of ZFS is not even limited to Solaris/FreeBSD and you can bet the GUI/tools used to manage ZFS on Mac OS will more intuitive than that on Solaris (though there's nothing wrong with command line ZFS usage, its ridiculously easy).
