Hi Brian,

This is not supported right now. There are some open JIRAs related to
this feature:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-282
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-423
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1022

I don't know if anybody is actively working on these JIRAs though.
