Hi, I've updated this KIP slightly, to clarify a couple of points.
One thing in particular that I would like feedback on is what authorization should be required for triggering the election of the preferred leader? Another thing would be whether the request and responses should be grouped by topic name. This would make for smaller messages when triggering elections for multiple partitions of the same topic. I'd be grateful for any feedback you may have.
