Chris Egerton commented on KAFKA-15992:
---------------------------------------

The heartbeats topic name is already configurable in replication policies as of 
[KIP-690|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-690%3A+Add+additional+configuration+to+control+MirrorMaker+2+internal+topics+naming+convention].
 While it's still an option to augment the {{DefaultReplicationPolicy}} class 
with configuration properties to control its heartbeat topic, users can also 
subclass the {{DefaultReplicationPolicy}} to add custom logic right now if 
they'd like to.

 

I don't raise these points as reasons to not add this configurability to the 
{{DefaultReplicationPolicy}} class, but just to note the current workarounds 
that are available in case users need this right now and can't wait for a KIP 
to be approved and released.

> With DefaultReplicationPolicy, the heartbeats topic name is hard-coded. 
> Instead, this should be configurable, so users can avoid collisions with the 
> "heartbeats" topics of other systems.
