Florian Albrecht commented on KAFKA-5072:
-----------------------------------------
Really would like to see this implemented (especially because the PR is quite
trivial). We could also use additional meta information assigned to each topic
- currently, we have an extra topic where we store metadata information for
each topic.
Imagine all the possibilities - e.g. could CLI tools filter for topics based on
this metadata fields when listing topics ("give me all topics belonging to
development team A").
> Kafka topics should allow custom metadata configs within some config namespace

> Kafka topics should allow custom metadata configs
> Such config properties may have some fixed namespace e.g. metadata* or custom*
> This is handy for governance. For example, in large organizations sharing a
> kafka cluster - it might be helpful to be able to configure properties like
> metadata.contact.info, metadata.project, metadata.description on a topic.
