Moving/migrating NGZs with delegated datasets which are NGZ's own children dataset - Is it supported

Hi,
This is in Solaris 11 Express:

On an installed and at least one time booted NGZ I decided to create a child dataset.
The idea was to structure the ZFS hierarchy so that each delegated NGZ dataset was a descendant of the NGZ own dataset.

The issue is when I need to migrate/move the NGZ to another host.
  1. Is it supported? (Or will be supported on Solaris 11?)
  2. Can I take advantage of zfs send/receive?
  3. What should be the attach procedure on the new host when using the zfs send/receive?
Should I detach all delegated datasets before migrating a zone and reattach them after the zone has been migrated?

Howdy, Stranger!
