Jakob Homan commented on ZOOKEEPER-119:
---------------------------------------

Maybe it would work to create the concept of hidden files, ala Linux?  Hide the 
ones that start with dot by default so that all the getChildren calls don't 
have to have special code to ignore .zookeeper or others.  Then create an 
overloaded getChildren that returns all the hidden files?  Just a thought.

> Reserve ".zookeeper" node for server use.

> The server should not allow clients to create .zookeeper nodes in the node 
> hierarchy. These nodes should be reserved for zk future use, some ideas:
> * /.zookeeper/proc
> * /.zookeeper/stats
> * /.zookeeper/...
> * /.../.zookeeper/... (disallow both at root as well as child nodes)
