To spare us all a rush of headaches, a couple of points to add:

 - Be aware that not every bootloader does supports btrfs for /boot
   (lilo, syslinux, ...)

 - For the Yast installer: Select bootloader before partitioning /
   root-fs selection, be prepared to 'propose' a extra /boot partition
   for non-btrfs aware bootloaders.

Make sure that these points land in the printed manual, and the wiki.
