It would be easy enough for me to print a 'time' column as the first

how people feel about that. Is that cheating? :-) The alternative
is to AVL sort by that time, which as you note will increase the
footprint, perhaps dramatically for a really big diff.
I'd be happy with that. Someone suggested a -o field1,field2,..,fieldN
option, and that's starting to look desirable. There's at least these
fields that you could include in output:
- object number
I don't see what use the object number is to anyone parsing the output
of 'zfs diff' particularly since there is no way for them to translate
it to anything meaningful. The object number is an internal ZFS
representation.
