We have a topology that has multiple kafka spout tasks. Each spout task is supposed to read a subset of messages from a set of Kafka topics. Topics have to be subscribed using a wild card such as AAA.BBB.*. The expected behaviour would be that all spout tasks collectively will consume all messages in all of the topics that match the wild card. Each message is only routed to a single spout task (Ignore failure scenarios). Is this currently supported?
