It's worth noting that ZFS supports abbreviated names ("compression" ->
"compress", "compressratio" -> "ratio", etc).  The short name is used in
'zfs list' column titles and can also be used as the property name.  So
maybe the full name should be "refcompressratio" as the long name and
"refratio" as the short name would make sense, as that matches
"compressratio".  Matt?
