@abhishekagarwal87 For me I personally don't want to make something
configurable/pluggable unless I know there is a use case for it. Being able to
support lots and lots of failures with little impact on kafka does not feel
like that important of a use case. Mostly because lots and lots of failures
seems to be an "oh crap I need to fix something" situation, not an "I do this
all the time and failure is the expected behavior so stop pounding on kafka so
much" situation.
