--- Comment #2 from Larry Rosenman <ler@FreeBSD.org> ---
When you say:

bectl create newbe

it will use the currently running boot environment.  For a person that is=20
not familiar with the underlying libbe(3) create call, it's unclear that the
currently running boot environment will be the one cloned to create the new=
be
environment.

What I'm asking for is to add the statement from the libbe(3) create call
documentation to the bectl(8) create command documentation that without a 3=
rd
argument the currently running boot environment will be cloned to create the
new boot environment.
