see stale data.
+   *
+   *  ZooKeeper client object has an invariant of each object has one session. 
With this invariant
+   *  we can achieve each one sync() to server upon new session establishment. 
The reasoning is:
+   *  issueSync() is called when fireNewSessionEvents() which in under 
eventLock of ZkClient. Thus
+   *  we are guaranteed the ZooKeeper object passed in would have the new 
incoming sessionId. If by
+   *  the time sync() is invoked, the session expires. The sync() would fail 
with a stale session.
+   *  This is exactly what we want. The newer session would ensure another 
fireNewSessionEvents.

Review comment:
       “Please see my reply to the original thread.”, where I mentioned that 
this con is not real : )
   
   When you get the zk first then compared it with the session Id, you will 
have the right zk to use for sure. Or the check will fail and we will not 
really send sync request.
