(Get the code!)
We may consider doing some of that when reworking the way we handle storage in a few months.
For now, users will typically use "lxd init" which will create a LXD pool for them that's marked with mounts disabled from the start (and a clean config for everything else).
If you opt into using a subset of an existing pool, we assume you know what you're doing and that you will properly configure it prior to giving it to LXD (LXD won't create it for you so you kinda have to).
The fact that LXD doesn't put /var/lib/lxd itself in the ZFS pool is intentional. LXD will eventually support multiple pools and storage backends being used in parallel, which would directly conflict with this approach.
