I agree with @tzulitai that it would be nice if you could have minimum code
duplication in the long-run but it might not be possible with the current
design of the consumers.
What about the new timestamps that were introduced in Kafka 0.10? This is
also something that wouldn't work with the 0.9 consumer and could only be
implemented for the 0.10-specific consumer, correct?
