Huh. I don't think this is a good idea - and certainly not in the back
branches. The prior message made more sense, imo. The fact that the snapshot
identifier is a file is an implementation detail, no snapshot with the
identifier being exported is a user level detail. Hence that being mentioned
in the error message.

I can see an argument for treating ENOENT different than other errors though,
and using the standard file opening error message for anything other than
ENOENT.
