Till Rohrmann commented on KAFKA-10523:
---------------------------------------

Being able to provide the producer ID and sequence number would indeed be very 
powerful to build a system that can produce with exactly-once guarantees into a 
Kafka topic across restarts. For example, if I have a set of messages that have 
a sequence number assigned, I could instantiate the Kafka producer with a fixed 
producer ID (with me being responsible for the uniqueness of the producer ID) 
and the sequence number from the next message to send.

> I read about the implementation of idempotence and saw that it is only 
> guaranteed within a producer session, since it depends on a PID reassigned 
> every time the producer (re)start.
> The PID is probably assigne relying on ZooKeeper, but I was wondering if it 
> could be possible to support providing a PID externally to gain idempotence 
> across restrarts e.g. having the producing application read the PID from a 
> configuration file.
