Hi Everyone,

I have created [KAFKA-9861] as a process improvement and I have started
work on it.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9861

I understand that KIPs are generally reserved for code improvements or
changes but I wanted to find out if something like this is better as a KIP
rather than a JIRA issue.

When you have a moment, please let me know and I can either submit the KIP
or add subtasks or related tasks to this current issue.

Thanks in advance for any feedback or guidance.
