Re: A deficiency? You can only add children to persistent nodes

[Patrick Hunt]

Hi Lei, that's perfectly fine, however the issue would be that 
operations such as "getchildren(/path)" would return all these, vs if 
you had an explicit path structure such as 
getchildren(/path/starburst/cluster/nodes) - ie flat vs hierarchical.

Hi Dominic,

Is it acceptable to use ephemeral nodes with hierarchical names, such as
"starburst.cluster.nodes"?
