Planned yes, but it turns out that ZFS boot wasn''t the only dependency,
in fact it isn''t even the most significant one.
It still isn''t going to be in the first phase of ZFS crypto that gets
delivered.
The good news though is that Moniak has a prototype of booting from an
encrypted lofi (a bit like dm-crypto or cryptoloop on Linux or File
Vault on MacOS X) so that is helping us work through some of the issues.
Getting ZFS encrypted root with TPM support is a big job and is mostly
dependent on the TPM project.
