Yes this is a known restriction currently. Nobody complained so far. I
guess that is because nobody really cares.

My plan for the next release cycle is to remove the zone restriction
altogether and allow onlining movable inside kernel zones. This would
make this change completely irrelevant. So I would rather not do this
now unless you have a strong usecase for it or an existing usecase broke
