The system property name is a bit misleading... this parameter is actually
specifies the username used in the ZooKeeper server principal.  (in your
case the server principal is: zookeeper/z...@example.com)
AFAIK the ZooKeeper client (after authenticated as zkclient/z...@example.com
in Kerberos based on the jaas.conf file) needs to know the ZooKeeper server
principal in order to ask for a specific token from kerberos which can be
read by the ZooKeeper server.

In 3.5.5 (or 3.5.6) you can use the  zookeeper.sasl.client.username
parameter (plus some other parameters) to configure how the server
principal will be determined by the client.
See:
https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/c11b7e26bc554b8523dc929761dd28808913f091/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/SaslServerPrincipal.java#L48

In future releases (3.5.7, 3.6, ...) you can also use
the zookeeper.server.principal parameter (a much better name I think) to
use a fix server principal name in the client.
See:
https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/1c5d135d74f16275876c024401dc2de92909b20a/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/SaslServerPrincipal.java#L50
