-FLAVOR: Ubuntu Desktop

-HEADLINE: Default ZFS from the installer

-DESCRIPTION: There is way too much work now to get Ubuntu Desktop up and running on ZFS. I think everyone would love for you to make Ubuntu install on ZFS by default from the gui installer. ZFS is the one and only reason why I currently use FreeBSD. If Ubuntu would install on ZFS without me having to spend so muvh time on hackery it I would run back to Ubuntu in a heart beat.

-ROLE: CEO, Software Developer

FWIW I think NexentaStor's zfs configuration interface is the easiest way I've seen to configure zfs. Something like that where it's dead-easy to apply an SSD to cache & multiple HDDs to redundant pools would be wonderful.
