Hi Harsha, thanks for reading the KIP.
The intent is to use the DefaultPartitioner logic for round-robin selection of partition regardless of key type. Implementing Partitioner interface isn’t the issue here, you would have to do that anyway if you are implementing your own. But we also want this to be part of formal codebase.
