I'm not sure about BSD, but Solaris ZFS works with whole devices.  So there 
isn't any OS specific formatting involved.  I assume BSD does the same.

That is not true. ZFS will use a EFI partition table with one
partition if you give it the whole disk.

An EFI label isn't "OS specific formatting"!


My guess is that you should put it in an EFI partition. But a normal
partition should work.

ZFS will write one if you add whole drives to a pool.
I would test this in virtualbox or vmware if I where you.

Sensible idea.
