> ZKUtil.deleteNodeRecursively()'s contract says that it handles deletion of
> the node and all its children. However, nothing is mentioned as to what
> happens if the node you are attempting to delete doesn't actually exist.
> Turns out, it throws a null pointer exception. I
> 'm proposing that we change the code s.t. it handles the case where the
> parent is already gone and exits cleanly, rather than failing horribly.
