    I think for this, it would be nice to be able to just say:
    
    ```
    String dataFormat = consumerConfig.get(
        ConsumerConfigConstants.STREAM_TIMESTAMP_DATE_FORMAT,
        ConsumerConfigConstants.DEFAULT_STREAM_TIMESTAMP_DATE_FORMAT);
    ```
    and then use whatever rendered format to build the data parser. The logic 
is much easier to understand that way.
    
    `DEFAULT_STREAM_TIMESTAMP_DATE_FORMAT` would basically be the original 
format in `KinesisConfigUtil.initTimestampDateFormat`.


> Let Date format for timestamp-based start position in Kinesis consumer be 
> configurable.

> Currently, the Kinesis consumer's Date format for timestamp-based start 
> positions is fixed. It'll be nice to make this format configurable.
