Erik van Oosten updated FLINK-6928:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
When using a Kafka sink, the defaultTopic needs to exist even when it is never 
used. It would be nice if fetching partition information for the default topic 
would be delayed until the moment a topic is actually used.

Cause: {{FlinkKafkaProducerBase.open}} fetches partition information for the 
default topic.

never used. It would be nice if fetching partition information for the default 
topic would be delayed until the moment a topic is actually used.
