Hi Dong,

What I meant was "Right now Kafka just extracts the name out of the
Principal that is generated by the PrincipalBuilder. Instead of doing that
if it preserves the Principal itself, this issue can be addressed".

May be I should have used the word "preserve" instead of "stores". I have
updated the wording in the KIP.

Thanks,

Mayuresh
