  Interesting, then my understanding is flawed :).  I was thinking that there 
would need to be libbe support if /var was on a different dataset because 
diverging snapshots of that /var dataset would be associated with each BE, so 
each time a BE is mounted, you'd need to find the associated /var clone and 
mount that under the BE.  I'll take a closer look to see if I'm missing 
something, then.

 Thanks,
