Let's imagine that you have 2 BEs, each with subdataset:
zroot/ROOT/default
zroot/ROOT/default/var
and
zroot/ROOT/upgrade
zroot/ROOT/upgrade/var

Of course, each pair _needs_ to be mounted, but the mountpoints are the same.
When you will boot to default, which one var will you get mounted if this will
be performed automatically?

But I totally agree with this.

Perhaps using a custom property indicating BEs will be better.
