Dmitry Minaev commented on BEAM-5786:
-------------------------------------

We definitely need to be able to discover new topics at runtime. But since it's 
a major change maybe it'll be good to at least resolve it at the start for now 
and then work on the bigger change.

> KafkaIO should support topic patterns

> For the moment, it is possible to set topics for KafkaIO.Read in 2 ways - one 
> single topic by using {{withTopic(String)}} or list of topics by using 
> {{withTopics(List<String>)}}. 
> It would make sense to provide another way for this using patterns, based on 
> regular expressions, like {{withTopics(“org_[0-9]+_source”)}}. In this case, 
> Kafka consumer could discover the topics based on user provided pattern.
