As it happens, I just happen to have tried this - albeit on a
different card, it went well.  I have a Marvell 88SX6081 controller,
and removing a disk caused no undue panic (as far as I can tell).
Adding a new disk, the kernel detected it immediately and then I had
to run "cfgadm -cconfigure scsi0/1" or something like that.  Then it
Just Worked.  I don't know if this is recommended or not... but it
worked for me.
What is the best way to simulate a disk error under zfs.
before i want to add real data to the system, i want to make sure it works.

my naive aproach:

1) remove disk from any pool membership (is this needed?)

zpool xxx detach <disk>
zpool yyy detach <disk>

2) disk should be free to be removed
3) pull plug
4) see what happens

5) plug disk in
6) restore zpool membership again

(1) and (6) should not be really needed, or do I see that incorrectly?
