With the extreme development, support, and very widely adoptation ZFS on Linux has gained we need at least zfs-dkms in the Arch Linux repos - badly.

Both Debian, Ubuntu, and several other distros has already incorporation ZFS into their repositories, in Debian and Ubuntus case it's in their contrib repos.
