Thanks for your questions and comments Boyang.

1.Regarding the first point you mentioned:
If we have some offline log files, we need to enter data into kafka for
analysis and use in subsequent processes.
This situation may not be frequent, but it does exist.
After this KIP, these data can be written to kafka quickly and easily
through the ConsoleProducer.

Supporting multiple file reading through options, rather than the
assistance of complex bat and shell scripts, would be a good choice.
This is also an improvement that makes Kafka easier to use.

2.Regarding the description of the KIP content in the first and second
points, I have updated the KIP.

3.Regarding your third question, I agree with you. The comma separator
conforms to the habit of most users, and this habit does not change often.
Therefore, we will use a comma as the default separator and let users
follow this rule.

Thanks

Wenbing
