Hi Jason, Thanks for reviewing the KIP.
I hadn't included *inter.broker.protocol.version*, but you have provided a good reason to do that in order to avoid an additional rolling restart during upgrade. I had included *log.message.format.version* along with other default topic configs, but it probably makes sense to do these two together.
