Github user Randgalt commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/curator/pull/182
If I understand this PR correctly, overwriteExisting only applies on the
first use, right? If so, I'd like to see this renamed to something that better
reflects it's use. `overwriteInitialExisting` or `overwriteStartingExisting` or
something.

> Currently, when PersistentNode.start() is called, and a node at the specified
> path already exists, this existing node's data is overwritten with the
> PersistentNode's data.
> Similarly, when PersistentNode.close() is called, the node is deleted, even
> if a node existed at the specified path before PersistentNode.start() was
> called.
> Add an option to PersistentNode to not overwrite/delete an existing node.
