etcd supports mkdir but libkv does not. is it intentional?

Hi @streamnsight,

Yes, because Consul does not support mkdir, etcd is the only store making a strict distinction between directories and keys (which is even stronger than the notion of znode in zookeeper, because zk can store a value in a znode).

Current work on etcd APIv3 will get rid of that distinction between keys and directories.

See #20 for more details on that issue.
