I've added a link to the email thread to ZOOKEEPER-723 [1]. I've also created a new JIRA for the approach I've suggested ZOOKEEPER-834 [2] I will try to provide a patch after I finish my GSoC assignment.
For me it seems like a good idea to allow a session to create / own an ephemeral tree and not just leafs under persistent znodes.
