In the new Java producer I see that you can set RETRY_BACKOFF_MS_CONFIG https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0.8.2/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/producer/KafkaProducer.java#L112 which is used https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0.8.2/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/producer/internals/RecordAccumulator.java#L217-L226 but I don't see (maybe just missing it??? I haven't spent a lot of quality time with the code yet) how to set the number of retry this happens before failure as we have in the existing producer https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0.8.2/core/src/main/scala/kafka/producer/ProducerConfig.scala#L98 or is this done another way or no longer required or used???
