   Yes, that's expected and we should also cover this case.
   
   Because there are multiple consumer, we use `consumer.` to allow users to 
change a config for _all_ consumer. If you want to change a config for a 
specific consumer (or if you want to configure two consumer differently), you 
would use `main.consumer.` et al. If both prefix (generic and specific) are use 
the consumer-specific prefix has preference over the general `consumer.` 
prefix. Does this make sense? It's basically a "config hierarchy" (flexible and 
powerful, but maybe a little hard to understand on first encounter...)
