FreeBSD can do this for a long time already. A few days ago I heard
about a grub2 which can do this for some Illumos-derived version which
is able to boot.
OmniOS and major Illumos derivatives can not boot from raidz.
Support for booting from raidz would be of great benefit given the
limited number of drive slots typically available in 1U and 2U
servers.
An internal boot device can help make up for lack of external drive
bays.
