> DeleteRecursive has been committed to trunk already as a method to the 
> zookeeper class. So in the API it has the same level as the atomic operations 
> create, delete, getData, setData, etc. The user must get the false impression, 
> that deleteRecursive is also an atomic operation.
> It would be better to have deleteRecursive in some helper class but not that 
> deep in zookeeper's core code. Maybe I'd like to have another policy on how to 
> react if deleteRecursive fails in the middle of its work?
