Aditya Auradkar commented on KAFKA-2536:
----------------------------------------

[~gwenshap] - Thanks for reporting. Do we plan to keep this functionality in 
kafka-topic for future releases? In the future it will have to change to use 
the AlterConfig command to the brokers.

> topics tool should allow users to alter topic configuration

> When we added dynamic config, we added a kafka-config tool (which can be used 
> to maintain configs for non-topic entities), and remove the capability from 
> kafka-topic tool.
> Removing the capability from kafka-topic is:
> 1. Breaks backward compatibility in our most essential tools. This has 
> significant impact on usability.
> 2. Kinda confusing that --create --config works but --alter --config does 
> not. 
> I suggest fixing this.
