And don't forget btrfs quota setup for snapper that is used by default at least since SLE12-SP2.
I don't know what Leap inherits from SLE12 service packs. As far as I know the "intelligence" how to setup the default btrfs subvolume structure and related things is built-in into the YaST installer (I mean the part of YaST plus helper tools like /usr/lib/snapper/installation-helper that run within the SUSE installation system "inst-sys") so that I assume it depends on what YaST installer version is used in Leap (and additionally it may depend on whatever product specific presets for the YaST installer).
For each SLE12 service pack (at least up to SLE12-SP2) there was another (incompatible) change or another addon in the SUSE default btrfs subvolume setup that leads to "interesting effects" when using existing system recovery procedures.
I.e. each SLE12 service pack needs a bit different recovery procedure when the default btrfs subvolume setup is used, cf.

I mean this is time that the developers of Suse/Opensuse add a Yast module for clone, backup and restore system.
Yes, YaST should at least have a method to fully initialize a btrfs system partition different from the current root partition. Perhaps inside the partitioning module.
Years ago the installer DVD had the option "System repair", but today have nothing.
If you mean the automatic repair module, yes, that one disappeared. But rescue mode should still be there. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
