Two main issues I can think of:
1) unnecessary -- clients already randomize their connect string to
balance the sessions across servers
2) unless you turn on some sort of session tracking in the ballancer
client's won't be able to use the service. ZK sessions use long lived
TCP connections to maintain a session with a particular server.
See session docs for more detail. http://bit.ly/db90Y5

Hi ZooKeeper Dev Team,
We are thinking of putting our ZooKeeper server behind load balancer. The
client applications would connect to assemble through the load balancer.
Can you let us know if there are any drawbacks in putting the assemble behind a
load balancer?
Thank you,
Seb
