They are talking about a more LTS-style arrangement, which would be good. Being forced to rebuild a zone if you wish to upgrade to the latest quarter could be fine many cases - simple one application servers - but on the flip side likely to be painful in more complex situations - say when manual configuration is required. In part I think the difficult because the zones lofs mount in file from the GZ into /usr. There may be some technical reasons for this, but personally I think that storage is cheap so it shouldn't have to be done that way.
