Error when deleting ZFS Boot Environment created from duplicate of non-default entry

Description
After attempting to delete a "quick" boot environment, the GUI displayed the following error:
The following input errors were detected: * Unable to delete boot environment "quick-20220707003613". Error 21
However, neither the GUI nor running zfs list -t snapshot list the entry, hence it was indeed deleted.

I can't reproduce this here so far. I can create a quick BE and then delete it without error. Though I haven't tried to delete an older quick BE or delete one after activating it and using it.
There may be more involved in reproducing it than just having it be a quick BE.
That said, if it was removed, perhaps the error checking could test for that and make the text state it was still removed (e.g. a warning instead of a fatal error)

I don't recall the details when discussing it with Christian, but he mentioned something along the lines of the issue potentially being due it trying to delete something in the snapshot chain that no longer existed.

I cannot reproduce this either. Hopefully Christian can provide some insight into what might be the reproducible steps for this bug, because I can create and destroy quick snapshots all day.

This should probably be marked as Incomplete.

FWIW: I get these errors whenever I (try to) delete a snapshot that is the parent snapshot of another clone. But deleting the children in turn, and then the parent snapshot. Would not result in error 21.
Also, as previous stated. The snapshot is acctually deleted. So the error is reporting false information.

Hello Jonas,
I recommend testing on 23.01. 22.09 is no longer an actively maintained version. Please install fresh on 22.05 and upgrade to the latest 23.01-BETA builds to verify if this is still a problem.
If you can recreate this, can you please provide step-by-step how you recreated the issue?

Moving this ahead and marking that we need feedback here. It's still not clear how to reproduce this, and thus far nobody who has attempted to reproduce it has been able to replicate the error condition.

I can reproduce this on 23.01.
- Click
Createand usedefaultas the source; save it. - Click the duplicate icon on the new snapshot; save it.
- Click the delete icon on the snapshot created in step 1.
