-------------------------------------
Moving to 0.9 now.
> Allow OffsetFetchRequest to initialize offsets
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-853
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-853
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1
> Reporter: David Arthur
> Fix For: 0.9.0
>
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> It would be nice for the OffsetFetchRequest API to have the option to
> initialize offsets instead of returning unknown_topic_or_partition. It could
> mimic the Offsets API by adding the "time" field and then follow the same
> code path on the server as the Offset API.
> In this case, the response would need to a boolean to indicate if the
> returned offset was initialized or fetched from ZK.
> This would simplify the client logic when dealing with new topics.
