Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-2333:
-------------------------------------
In pretty much every database in existence writing to a renamed table will
cause errors, so thats expected.
I'm more concerned about in-flight replications, there's a reason delete took 3
attempts to get right. I hope we can reuse some of that code / tests.
Does it make sense to say that for the future, anything with user-visible name
should also have an internal name that will never ever changes?
