    I am not sure adding a direct dependency on zookeeper in the core is a good 
idea. What if, in future, we do not depend on Curator? If no one remembers this 
reason of why we added Zookeeper, we will still have an unnecessary dependency 
of zookeeper on the core. In fact in generate, the reason kafka, flume, and 
other stuff were moved to external was so that they have no bearing on the 
dependencies in core. So if there is a solution that fixes external stuff 
without touching dependencies of core, then thats better. 
    
    What do you think? @pwendell
