> When using DSL in Kafka Streams, data re-partition happens only when 
> key-changing operation is followed by stateful operation. On the other hand, 
> in DSL, stateful computation can happen using _transform()_ operation as 
> well. Problem with this approach is that, even if any upstream operation was 
> key-changing before calling _transform()_, no auto-repartition is triggered. 
> If repartitioning is required, a call to _through(String)_ should be 
> performed before _transform()_. With the current implementation, burden of 
> managing and creating the topic falls on user and introduces extra complexity 
> of managing Kafka Streams application.
