Add 'zfs rename pool/dataset' to the UI

Just because it is an appliance and this function is sometimes useful !

@mfpck Is this a request or a rant? It looks like the latter.

Why ?

Because your initial post sounds unpolite.
I also think this would be a nice feature to have but you should rephrase it in a way sounds a bit more serious and/or nice.

Oh really, yesterday I was in a hurry and I wrote it quick like a mind note…I do apologize!

Renaming pools in the UI? That’s an upvote, good idea.

You have my vote, I have to use rename from time to time to move a sub-dataset from one dataset to another, would be nice to be able to do it via GUI.

good timing, just had to rename a pool on my disaster recovery site to match production using zfs rename. however there should be a warning popup highlighting the implications especially for less experienced users
