zfs-import-scan.service and zfs-import-cache.service appear to be
implementation details of zfs-linux.
I don't think we should pull something like this into systemd,
especially since no-one in the systemd team has ZFS knowledge (at least
I don't have any idea if what you propose makes sense or not from a ZFS
pov).

Finally, this would have to be added upstream first and not be
maintained as downstream patch.
For that you'd need to file a bug report at
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues and convince upstream that
what you propose is the right thing to do.
