Hi, all. We recently added the ability for Kafka Connect to create *internal* topics using the new AdminClient, but it still would be great if Kafka Connect could do this for new topics that result from source connector records. I've outlined an approach to do this in "KIP-158 Kafka Connect should allow source connectors to set topic-specific settings for new topics".

Thanks! Best regards, Randall
