Joe Stein commented on KAFKA-1778:
----------------------------------
I was thinking that the broker when starting up would have another property.
can.be.controller=false || can.be.controller=true
If a broker has this value to true, then it can be the controller and the
thread starts up for the KafkaController, else it doesn't. Should be a few
lines change in KafkaServer and config mod
> Create new re-elect controller admin function
