we already have the ability to allow users to create/destroy snapshots 
over NFS.  Look at the ZFS delegated administration model.  If all you 
want is snapshot creation/destruction then you will need to grant 
"snapshot,mount,destroy" permissions.

then on the NFS client mount go into .zfs/snapshot and do mkdir 
<snapname>.  Providing the user has the appropriate permission the 
snapshot will be created.

rmdir can be used to remove the snapshot.
