I disagree. As one example, Apple ships Time Machine with their OS. With ZFS you could theoretically implement the same thing only better. Automatic snapshots enabled by default, with optional replication to an external hard drive for backup, could easily be a headline feature for a new version of Ubuntu. Not to mention ZFS compression enabled by default to get more use out of tiny laptop SSDs. Certainly not everyone needs it, but I think there's a definite use case for ZFS (or btrfs, or any similar filesystem) on an ordinary desktop system, even if the user doesn't know what ZFS is.
