The base LiveList set up is similar to LiveConfig; it sets a watch and will get notified by ZooKeeper when the data changes. Sometimes we don't need data very frequently, if at all, and would rather eschew the watch for a pull based model (asking ZK for the data only when needed.) This is particularly helpful if we're doing write-only changes to a datastructure read only in one place (such as a queue processor).
