does the option get lost for already existing storages or does it affect
newly added ones? How do you edit/add the ZFS storages, via GUI or CLI,
please share the exact commands in the latter case. Please also note
that the storage configuration 'mountpoint' is optional. If it is not
set, it will be assumed to be the default mount point, i.e. the 'pool'
configuration option prepended by '/'.

I don't see how this is related. There is no 'mountpoint' storage config
option for NFS storages, just a 'path'. The issue here seems to have
been wrong mount options.

The issue here is about a missing container mount point volume after
restoring a backup (which Fabian pointed out is not restored for
unprivileged users). So again, I don't see how this is related.
