Andy Chambers commented on KAFKA-5836:
--------------------------------------

Agree that bumping the application id would resolve the issue by creating 
completely new internal topics. But v2 isn't really "changing" the input 
topics. It is reading two new topics (c and d) and processing those 
independently of the original a and b. The required processing on a and b 
remains the same and the state that has been built up remains valid and might 
take quite a while to build from scratch if you're using kafka as an event log.

> Automatic topic name can be problematic in case of streams operation 
> change/migration.
> I'd like to be able to specify name of an internal topic so I can avoid 
> creation of new stream and data "loss" when changing the Stream building.
