Looks very interesting. However, I'm not familiar with Illumos/OmniOS to begin with. Even though ZFS is still ZFS, I'd be concerned about dealing with operation of an OS that I'm not familiar with. I've played with FreeBSD for a few years, and I know its community help is great along with the wealth of StackOverflow responses. I'd try OmniOS for a smaller scale private project to learn it.
