Confuse created FLUME-3353:
------------------------------

             Summary: Parameter allowTopicOverride should be changed to false
                 Key: FLUME-3353
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-3353
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Sinks+Sources
    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
            Reporter: Confuse


In Flume 1.9.0, the default value of the allowTopicOverride parameter is false 
in Kafka sink.  Although instructions have been added to the user guide, this 
is still not user-friendly when useing flume to transfer data from one Kafka 
cluster to another Kafka cluster. Especially  in the scenario that flume 
upgrades from a lower version to a higher version while the topic in two Kafka 
clusters is different. It will make user confused that user don't find the data 
in second Kafka cluster. In general, setting this parameter to false is more 
general. If user wants the same topic in two Kafka clusters, user can set this 
parameter to be true. So, can the default value of this parameter be changed to 
false ?
