Hi

I had a quick look. Looks great!

A suggestion - From given example, I think API could be made more "pythonic". 
Python is dynamically typed and properties can be dynamically looked up too. 
Thus, instead of prop_get_* we can have -

1. prop() : generic function, returning "typed" arguments. The builtin zfs 
properties would be returned with correct "type" and user properties would be 
returned as generic string.

2. Ability to just say "z.property_name" (eg. z.compression). This would be 
trivial to implement syntactic sugar.

Also, some work would be needed to provide "pythonic" iterators and other 
idioms so that API does not feel like a python interface to C.

Thanks
