Thanks for all the information Robert! I will have a more detailed look at
the classes you mentioned until you are back. Regarding the open questions:
1) Copying code
- I don't see a problem with this in general. I would assume that the
copied solution will lead to less surprises in the end. After the new API is
released by Kafka, we can remove the code, right?
2) Packaging
- I think it's OK with proper documentation and as you said we have to do
it anyways at some point in time.

I've started a discussion about a bug fix release for 0.9. I think this
issue is a blocker for that release. What's your stand on this? What do you
think how much longer it will take after you are back?
