Hi,

Trying to see how the community feels about KAFKA-1993.

Currently "delete topic" feature is disabled by default and must be enabled
by admins.

Why enable by default?
* Ability to delete topics is kind of expected (and exposed in admin
tools), so people are surprised when they need to tweak a config for this
to work.
* If a feature is stable (and delete topic was throughly tested), it makes
sense to enable it by default

Why not?
* Delete topic is a new feature and seems to still have some bugs.
* As a matter of security, some shops may prefer to disallow topic
deletion. It makes sense to default for a more secure option.

Thoughts?
