Thomas Weise commented on FLINK-12675:
--------------------------------------
[~wind_ljy] perhaps it would be best if you outline the next level of detail in
the design doc? We should avoid refactoring if possible, to minimize the
surface of these changes. I just checked and see that the universal consumer
(FlinkKafkaConsumer) does not share all the internals with older, Kafka version
specific implementation, so we can hopefully avoid touching those altogether.
