Indeed, would so love to see trim added to zfs :)

Thanks for the feedback. I will get them updated as per comments as
soon as I can.

Could you give me some points on the things you spotted weren't "KNR"
I've tried to stick with what I saw as the current formatting but clearly
missed something's ;-)

Not really a fan myself of mixing in getopt_long either but if beats the
current use of totally random / meaningless letters for options if we
stuck with short opts. Add that to how dangerous the options are and I
think forcing long opts is the right move, what do others think?
