I'm copying the other parts of the zookeeperProgrammers.xml here. I built
the docs and it looks good.

> I want to plumb the ZooKeeperServer object into the auth plugins so that I
> can store authentication data in zookeeper itself. With access to the
> ZooKeeperServer object, I also have access to the ZKDatabase and can look up
> entries in the local copy of the zookeeper data.
> In order to implement this, I make sure that a ZooKeeperServer instance is
> passed in to the ProviderRegistry.initialize() method. Then initialize() will
> try to find a constructor for the AuthenticationProvider that takes a
> ZooKeeperServer instance. If the constructor is found, it will be used.
> Otherwise, initialize() will look for a constructor that takes no arguments
> and use that instead.
