Hi Rick -

It's an interesting thought.
My follow up question would be...

How often does the REST client that is having access to services gated by
Knox have line of sight of ZK?
My personal expectation is that most clients of Knox do not and ZK should
actually be hidden from them.

ZK is rather cumbersome to secure and there are lots of sensitive network
topology and state information in there.

While I do dream of the day that Knox will be able to discover all the URLs
of the services in a topology from the ZK based register, I don't think
that I can see the value in having Knox be discoverable through it.

Can you more fully articulate the usecase?

thanks!
