Review Comment:
   Thanks for this excellent explanation, @cmccabe! I've created JIRA issue 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18434 to incorporate this 
explanation into the error message. This will help users understand the 
permission distinctions when using controllers as bootstrap servers.
