That is not my experience, and I just tried it on build 12 (not
GA version), and it did not create a ZFS snapshot nor a clone of
that snapshot. This partial ZFS list shows the difference between
S10 and Nevada. I just cloned a zone who's zonepath is in /zones.
You will see an old clone done with NV 60 still in the pool.
