Hello Apache Kafka community, Current unclean leader election docs state: "In the future, we would like to make this configurable to better support use cases where downtime is preferable to inconsistency. "
If I'm not mistaken, since 0.8.2, unclean leader election strategy (whether to allow it or not) is already configurable via unclean.leader.election.enable broker config property. Kind regards, Stevo Slavic.
