Hi Michael,

I am not sure about using a new policy. One other option (suggested by
Gwen) is that the behaviour of the producer with regards to tombstones when
you pass a `null` value and don't use the constructor that takes a
tombstone can be influenced by a producer config. Not ideal, but would
limit the complexity of maintaining compatibility while providing a path
for the (what I think) are the right semantics.
