[desktop-discuss] Degraded zpool without any kind of alert

I just saw by luck that one of my zpool is degraded!:

$ zpool list
NAME    SIZE   USED  AVAIL    CAP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
home   97,5G   773M  96,7G     0%  ONLINE  -
rpool  10,6G  7,78G  2,85G    73%  DEGRADED  -

It would be nice if gnome could notify me automatically when one of my zpools are degraded or if any kind of ZFS error occurs.
It should be possible. I know that in Ubuntu they have included a mechanism to create manually notify messages on the desktop, like the "update notification" messages.

I would also accept if it could be possible at least to send automatically a mail when a zpool is degraded.

Could it be possible to implement for the next release a ZFS monitoring or alert mechanism?
