Looks like "Only iX Engineers can create Improvement / Feature Ticket Types". So I guess I will post this here.

For systems with multiple passphrase encrypted Pools/Datasets you need to go to each Pool and select Unlock. If you need to do this several times it can take quite a long time as it needs to load multiple things before and after you enter the passphrase.

It would be helpful to have a main window that lists all locked Pools/Datasets in one menu so you can input all your passphases in one go. There is already this functionality in a way. If you have a Pool with multiple encrypted Child Datasets it will allow you to enter the passphase for each Child Dataset in one menu. This could be modified to include all Pools/Datasets. Perhaps with a check box under or above the 'Include Child Dataset' one.

Thats a good suggestion for us. I'll raise some visibility here on this end.
