   @danoSF Thanks for the patch!
   
   I am not really comfortable with this change because it breaks the 
encapsulation of the classic protocol. If we start deserializing embedded 
protocols, where do we stop? It can get messy pretty quickly if we start on 
this path. Another thing to be careful with is that a client may use `consumer` 
name for the embedded protocol without using the same as ours. We have seen 
cases like this.
   
   I would rather prefer to get users on KIP-848 as the new consumer protocol 
address all these flaws in the classic protocol. At this point, if a user is 
impacted by this, upgrading seems to be a reasonable path. What do you guys 
think?
