Hi Mickael, Thanks for the KIP. Given how important tombstone records are it's hard to believe that the console producer doesn't already support them!
I wanted to clarify the intended behavior and how it will play with the parse.key and the newly-introduced (as of KIP-798 [1]) parse.headers properties. Is the intention that the null.marker should match the entire line read by the console producer, or that it can match individual portions of a line that correspond to the record's key, value, header key, or header value? I imagine so but think it may be worth calling out (and possibly illustrating with an example or two) in the KIP.
