Do we really think that most administrators would want most operations to recurse by default? I would think that -- for the most part -- only a full image-update (as it were) should be recursive, and that with default recursion, I would end up using -Z global on every command.
Perhaps we recurse on any operation that involves synced packages, or only on synced packages within an operation. But I would hate to install some random package in the global zone only for my zone administrators to find that it ended up in each of theirs as well. Or am I misunderstanding where this conversation is going? I can envision having zones that are -- in some fashion -- slavedd to each other, so that making changes to one involves making changes to the others. Perhaps a non-global zone could be slaved to the global zone, too, in which case operations on the global zone would automatically recurse into that non-global zone. But I wouldn't expect that to be the normal course of operations.
