   Thanks for the PR @piotrrzysko. The changes look good although I'm not sure 
if we're not regressing the ability to change the replication factor of a topic 
if we're to outright block it.
   
   Perhaps we could have a workaround in the form of allowing the reassignment 
batch to run if it's changing all the partitions for the topic. Another 
solution I like more is adding a flag to the AlterPartitionReassignments API 
that allows it to change the replication factor and keeping this validation.
   
   In the long term, I think we may want to consider an API that allows you to 
alter the replication factor of a topic.
   
   cc @ijuma @gwenshap @cmccabe @hachikuji @soondenana do you happen to have 
any thoughts on the matter?
