Stanislav Kozlovski created KAFKA-14121:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: AlterPartitionReassignments API should allow callers to 
specify the option of preserving the replication factor
                 Key: KAFKA-14121
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14121
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Stanislav Kozlovski


Using Kafka's public APIs to get metadata regarding the non-reassigning 
replicas for a topic is unreliable and prone to race conditions.
If a person or a system is to rely on the provided metadata, it can end up 
{color:#202124}unintentionally {color}increasing the replication factor for a 
partition.
It would be useful to have some sort of guardrail against this happening 
{color:#202124}inadvertently.{color}
