Would it be worthwhile to implement heuristics to auto-tune

It would be really great to automatically select the proper recordsize
for each file! How do you suggest doing so?
Maybe I've been thinking with my systems hat on to tight but why not
have a hook into ZFS where an application, if written to the proper
spec, can tell ZFS what it's desired recordsize is? Then you don't have
to play any guessing games.
That would work, but the idea behind ZFS is to get rid of special hooks
and tunables and just make it work well and fast for the existing API.
