Ashish K Singh commented on KAFKA-1696:
---------------------------------------

[~parth.brahmbhatt] I am in favor of keeping this token information as much 
contained within brokers, not on ZK. Infact, how does the idea of limiting the 
delegation token generation to coordinator sounds to you? So, delegationToken 
req goes to co-ordinator and it is responsible of passing the token to client 
after it has been distributed to other brokers. This will avoid a race 
condition of brokers not updated with delegation token before clients try using 
it, which is possible in current design suggestion.

> Kafka should be able to generate Hadoop delegation tokens
