Jason Gustafson commented on KAFKA-2389:
----------------------------------------
[~gwenshap] This only reason we've resisted adding a Future is that the
KafkaConsumer is not thread-safe, which means that the returned Future would
have to be confined to the same thread as the consumer. This might be a
surprising/confusing restriction for users.
> CommitType seems not necessary in commit().
