Hi Andrew, Thanks for the KIP. It will be a great addition. I have one query:
AM1: Does --export also make sense for share groups as well? The current definition in KIP works for consumer group -> share group migration, but without --export on share groups, user cannot do: - Share group -> share group migration (e.g., renaming a group) - Share group -> consumer group rollback (if the migration doesn't go well) Hence, KIP should either add --export to share groups or explicitly state why it's being deferred? Please let me know your thoughts.
