With regard to getting rid of the builder pattern, I think it is a pretty
nice pattern for Java. It looks to me like it should be possible to declare and
configure the builder with "component:", and then pass it to the
KafkaSpoutConfig constructor with "ref:" after (which lets you avoid calling
build()). Doesn't this work?
