I would also add a few "End-User" capabilities/Questions for this
group.

What kind of detailed performance metrics will be available?

Will the end-user be able to determine the efficacy of the dedup?
Will they be able to break this out by a particular data type, pool or time
frame
When using compression with Dedup, how will they determine the compression level
of the data being written?
What tools will help understand throughput performance aspects - Disk, CPU,
Network, etc with regards to dedup ingest and replication/mirroring.
