Jason Gustafson updated KAFKA-10216:
------------------------------------
Description: Currently listing partition reassignments requires Cluster
Describe permission. This is quite annoying since it takes the user back to the
days before KIP-352 where they cannot distinguish under-replicated partitions
that are a result of reassignment. Since both the adding/removing replicas are
visible in the replica set, I cannot think of a good reason a user should be
unable to tell which is which. I suggest we change the permission to Topic
Describe instead. (was: Currently listing partition reassignments requires
Cluster Describe permission. This is quite annoying since it takes the user
