Is the ZFS team handling encryption as a first class priority at all?
ZFS on Linux inherited a lot of fame from ZFS on Solaris, but everyone using it in production should study the issue tracker very well for a realistic impression of the situation.

The way ZFS encryption is layered, the features should be pretty much orthogonal from each other, but I'll admit that there's a bit of lacking with ZFS native encryption (though mainly in upper layer tooling in my experience rather than actual on-disk encryption parts)
Can we please refer to them by the actual name?
There have been many man hours put into investigating bug reports involving encryption and some fixes were made. Unfortunately, something appears to be going wrong when non-raw sends of encrypted datasets are received by another system:

I do not believe anyone has figured out what is going wrong there. It has not been for lack of trying. Raw sends from encrypted datasets appear to be fine.
