   @hachikuji @ewencp I found this problem when adding new consumer to mirror 
maker which commits offset in the rebalance callback. It is not clear to me why 
we are triggering rebalance for commitSync() and fetchCommittedOffset(). Can 
you help review to see if I miss something?
   
   Regarding commitSync, After each poll() the partitions will be either 
assigned to a consumer or it will be already revoked. As long as user is using 
internal offset map, the offset map will always be valid. i.e. the offset map 
will always only contain the assigned partitions when commitSync is called. 
Hence there is no need to trigger a rebalance in commitSync().
   
   The same guarantee also apply to fetchCommittedOffset(), isn't the only 
requirement is to ensure we know the coordinator?
   
   Another related issue is that today the IllegalGenerationIdException is a 
bit confusing. When we receive an IllegalGenerationIdException from heartbeat, 
we need to use that same generation Id to commit offset and the coordinator 
will take it. So the generation ID was not really illegal. I will file a ticket 
for this issue.
