    I updated the PR with a new commit to address an issue that I ran into. 
When we create 'container' nodes in ZooKeeper whose paths are not sensitive, we 
will mark the node as wide-open, rather than applying ACLs. This allows us to 
not have to worry about if we have state management and heartbeats using 
different ACLs.
    
    Also removed use of username/passwords from ZooKeeper configuration. This 
was done because ZooKeeper indicates that these should be used only for local 
testing and not for production. In production, security should be administered 
via Kerberos. Username and password were always sent over the wire unencrypted. 
Additionally, we are now using Apache Curator to handle Leader Election, and 
Curator does not appear to support using digest auth via username/password.
