Hi,

I'm running 9.2.1.6, not yet upgraded to .7

I have a volume called home (/mnt/home) with several datasets under it, as well as several folders that are not datasets.

If I mount the path to the entire volume home (/mnt/home), in a jail (/mnt/home) then I see the folders and datasets but I can only access the folders. The datasets have no contents. The strange thing is that if i mount one of these datasets in a separate location in the jail (/mnt/test) directly then I have full access. Everything is owned by root:wheel.

I'm not sure if this is intended or if it is a bug.

It's not intended or a bug. It's because of how ZFS is designed. Datasets are filesystem boundaries and what you mount inside the jail only covers that filesystem.
