Hi, Thanks for the KIP.
To be honest I'm unsure about this feature. I find the motivation light, this targets a very specific error scenario. If we set the new configuration to false, you then must manually create the topics before the first start. Also all the internal topic configurations (offset.storage.partitions, etc) become unused. Then regarding the proposed configuration, have you considered internal.topics.creation.enable? Will the error message also specify the require configurations for the missing topics?
