I personally have been itching for a NixOS-style BSD or Illumos derivative. My main machine is currently NixOS with root on ZFS, but I would love to be running something where ZFS isn't an afterthought, I could use dtrace, the kernel has first class OS virtualization, and so on. I think that the declarative approach to package management is obviously the future, but I wish there were a non-Linux option.

I would run something like that if it would exist - illumos zones sound quite appealing as does a more native support for ZFS.

The way nixos handles zfs seems overengineered while on FreeBSD you don't even need an fstab.
