Interesting thing is that datto decided some time ago to bet on ZoL instead of Illumos so maybe we will see some improvements in the future. FreeBSD switching also to the ZoL implementation of ZFS rather then upstream Illumos is another catalyst of improvements (although not in Linux integration ofc). ZoL despite the fact that it is crippled and suffers from GPL-only in-kernel limitations became major (if not the main) force that drives OpenZFS development now.
Hopefully we will see in the near future more migrations from Illumos to ZoL (which will probably be more and more problematic for the OpenZFS itself and Joyent as a one of the main beneficiary of the Illumos code base right now) which may help advance Linux integration even further.
Sad thing is that ClusterHQ failed, they have made some work to help ZFS on Linux, fortunately one of that things - pyzfs is now adopted by ZoL and became part of it.
