If I understand the issue correctly, the problem is that some data,
even if it is not updated for a long period of time will, never be
deleted because it's always in a segment with new data?

As your segment size is already fairly small, I don't see any other
solution as to write corresponding tombstones.

Changing the behavior would for sure require a KIP. One could
basically change the compaction to leave data that is older than the
retention time in their own segments to make them available for
deletion. I am not familiar with this part of the code and thus cannot
say how complex it would be to implement.
