 Review comment:
   > I really wish the meta replica list was under a node of its own.
   
   I was thinking the same.
   
   Taking a step back, this whole logic is implemented to handle the following 
scenario. Consider a timeline of events (t n+1 > t n)
   
   t1: standby master starts (populateInitialMetaLocations() runs in c'tor). No 
meta znodes, so nothing is populated in the cache
   t2: Active master starts
   t3: meta znodes created.
   
   At this point standby's meta cache is stale and it hasn't registered any 
watchers, so nothing is notified and will remain a zombie forever.
   
   So to fix this problem, populateInitialMetaLocations() registers a watcher 
on the *base* znode *and* also gets the meta znodes. So if the meta znodes turn 
out to be empty, we at least have a watcher on the base znode when something 
gets populated later. So the new timeline would be.
   
   t1: standby master starts. No meta znodes, *but* registered a watcher on 
/hbase
   t2: active master starts
   t3: meta znodes created
   t4: standby gets a notification that /hbase has changed and it populates the 
cache.
   
   Do remember that we *do not* renew the watcher. So t4 is the last 
nodeChildrenChanged() event.
   
   Now the only problem is in the following sequence of actions.
   
   t1: active master starts
   t2. meta znodes created.
   t3: standby master starts, reads the meta znodes *but* also has a watcher on 
/hbase.
   
   Now in the future if some children of /hbase changes, we have an extraneous 
invalidate of cache, but thats ok since that is the last time it is going to 
happen.
   
   Now one may ask, why not do it the following way.
   
   1. meta_znodes = getMetaZnodes();
   2. if (meta znodes == empty) {
       register a watcher on /hbase
   3. }
   
   Unfortunately this is not atomic. Between (1) and (2), the meta znodes could 
be created and standby could remain stale for a while until some children of 
/hbase changes.
   
   Sorry for the long post. Hope this explains my line of thought. Feel free to 
point anything that I'm missing here. :-)
