   Thanks @dajac, I'm starting the KIP process for this.
   
   @dengziming, `--consumer.config` & `--producer.config` are config files for 
Producer & Consumer corresponding to the single property options 
`--producer-property` & `--consumer-property`. This new `--config` option is 
meant to handle the properties set by the `--property` option which is meant to 
setup the MessageReader for Producer (defined by `--line-reader`) or the 
MessageFormatter for Consumer (defined by `--formatter`). As the single 
property option is `--property`, I went to `--config` for coherence, but could 
be the less confusing `--reader.config` & `--formatter.config` (but then it 
would have been more coherent to have `--reader-property` & 
`--formatter-property` as single property options).
   `--command-config` is the config for the Admin Client, which is not the 
purpose here.
