Hi Joe, Thanks for starting a KIP for this change.
This feature is trivial once we agree on KIP-6 <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-6+-+New+reassignment+partition+logic+for+re-balancing> since that feature figures out an ideal replica placement. Decomission broker is just one of the events that trigger the same logic mentioned in KIP-6. I wonder if we can just fold this trivial change under KIP-6. This will save some overhead and also make KIP-6 more complete.
