your breath...)).

I guess the API exported by libzfs can serve for this? But first, I
have some concern about zfs.mod, I'll write a detailed mail about that
later.

Uhm this sounds wrong, grub-setup isn't meant to handle filesystems
(it does something like you describe for RAID1, but only because it
can rely on the storage backend being 1:1).
