   @unbalanced @rschwagercharter: I chatted with some other Spark folks and got 
some good clarification:
   
   1. Spark tries to be cloud-agnostic. You would have a hard time getting an 
Amazon-specific or Azure-specific Kafka partition assigner into the Spark 
codebase.
   2. Adding a configuration that requires an imperative plugin is considered a 
large new API surface. It probably would need a SPIP. In the design doc's 
current form, where there are _no_ alternatives laid out, I don't see it having 
an easy time getting approval. It also doesn't address important Spark issues 
like how this will work for Python and Spark Connect, which will certainly 
require an answer.
