home directory, a ZEVO volume, irreplaceable in OS X sidebar

Presence

I can't recall whether the sidebar icon for my home directory was preferred before or after I began using a ZEVO volume (pool/dataset gjp22) as the home.

Certainly it was present some time afterwards, mid-September 2012:

Today with ZEVO Community Edition 1.1.1 on OS X 10.8.2 I removed it from the sidebar, then realised:

  • with Finder, the sidebar entry is irreplaceable.

I might work around by editing the relevant .plist but I'll not bother. I never use the sidebar to access the directory (prefer Command-Shift-H).

Reducing the bug

Someone might like to check whether this bug is reproducible where the home directory is a JHFS+ volume (not a subdirectory thereof).

Iconography

No problem. There's a separate topic: Folder icons.

I logged out, logged in, shut down, started the computer.

Surprisingly, the home directory reappeared in the sidebar:
