   Hey @edoardocomar and @prestona thanks for the PR!
   
   One of the reasons I thought this might require a KIP is because it requires 
additional permissions that the current MM2 doesn't need: If an operator has 
already configured ACLs such that MM2 has write permissions for the checkpoints 
topic but no read permissions, it could be operating today and then failing 
after an upgrade with this change. I don't know if that is a common 
configuration or even a recommended one, but it does seem possible in the wild.
   
   Perhaps this can be configuration-less and backwards-compatible if we 
fallback to the old behavior if reading the checkpoints fails for any reason, 
including insufficient permissions.
