Hi Hailey.  No, I just looked, and zookeeper-server-stop does not have
any facility to be specific about which ZK nodes to signal.  So
providing the ability in kafka-server-stop to be more specific than
just "signal all controllers" or "signal all brokers" would be a bonus
and therefore not necessarily required.  But if it is easy to achieve
and doesn't add any additional cognitive load -- and at first glance
it does seem so -- we should probably just support it.
