This patch LGTM. What I want to discuss is unrelated to this patch. > they do it if they get an invalid result back. If null was a valid result for them, they shouldn't retry either. If the topic is not exist (or not been propagated yet), ```partitionFor``` can return null. By contrast, ```beginningOffsets``` (and other methods) throws ```TimeoutException```. In order to make consistent behavior, ```beginningOffsets``` (and other methods) should let the topic (or partition) be absent in the returned ```Map```.
