Use zpool import -R <mount root> -t <temporary name>.  The pool will be imported with the temporary name, so there is no conflict with the existing zroot pool.  Look carefully at the zpool-import(8) manual page.

This was a help request, not really a bug report --unless it
ended up turned into a documentation update request.

An example of that could be if "man zfs-mount" referenced
looking at "man zpool-import" for handling duplicate pool
names in orde to have a unique temporary pool name.
(Something that would be appropriate upstream as well.)
Mount being the more common concept, existing across many
file systems and OS's, a fair set of folks probably start
there when looking and the hint there could help.

But, not really FreeBSD specific, even for that, just
something FreeBSD would pick-up from a openzfs update
if it added such a note. Such a pick-up should be
automatic as part of normal procedures for importing
openzfs updates. A bugzilla report is likely not needed
for that.

Ultimately, the question going to a forum or a
list looks to be more appropriate than a bugzilla
submittal relative to the FreeBSD context.
