Reading zpool events requires root permission?

[olavgg]

I have an application that reads zfs events from multiple systems and gives alerts when human action is needed. This application basically reads zpool events -v and submit the event as json into a centralized web-application for zfs monitoring.

It seems like this application needs to run as user root to read zfs events. Are there any work arounds for this? I would prefer to do something like zfs allow myuser read_events
