--------------------------------------
Here's the use case, inspecting a stream of transactions looking for possible
fraud:

> Kafka Streams should support self-join on streams

> Key: KAFKA-7497
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7497
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Robin Moffatt
> Priority: Major
> Labels: needs-kip
>
> There are valid reasons to want to join a stream to itself, but Kafka Streams
> does not currently support this ({{Invalid topology: Topic foo has already
> been registered by another source.}}). To perform the join requires creating
> a second stream as a clone of the first, and then doing a join between the
> two. This is a clunky workaround and results in unnecessary duplication of
> data.
