You might want to include a catch-all, something like below:

finsen  /export/home-others /export/home  {
        zfs-snapshot
        include "./[!a-z]*"
        }

that you expect to be empty (or not :) but which will get
the ones that don't match the 26 specific DLE's.  Though it
will not get "dot-dirs" under /export/home.

Should your starting dir, /export/home, be the actual dir that
you snapshotted.  Or should it be some other dir where you mount
the snapshot?
