> For a full multi-language story in Stateful Functions, we're still lacking a 
> YAML-ized way to bind egresses. We should start with a Kafka one, as that is 
> the currently only supported ingress for multi-language applications.
> We propose to initially add a more "manual" approach for this, which gives 
> the user full freedom on partitioning and record serialization.
> A more specialized egress with built-in routing / protobuf serialization can 
> maybe be added in the future once we collect more knowledge on usage from 
> users.
> The plan is as follows:
> * Add a {{KafkaProducerRecord}} protobuf message with schema:
> {code}
> message KafkaProducerRecord {
>     string topic
>     string key
>     bytes valueBytes
> }
> {code}
> How the value was serialized would be completely user-space; the bytes are 
> written as is to Kafka. Partitioning depends on the partitioner used by the 
> Kafka client, which may be configured with Kafka properties via YAML.
> * The Flink sink provider for this egress should expect only messages of 
> {{KafkaProducerRecord}} (wrapped within a protobuf Any). It simply transforms 
> the information in the received {{KafkaProducerRecord}} to Kafka's own 
> {{ProducerRecord}}, and writes that to Kafka.
