I was having some more thoughts about it. We can simply take over what Kafka broker implements for the listeners: - We can take over the "listener" and "listener.security.protocol.map" options to define multiple REST listeners and the security protocol they should use - The HTTPS interface will by default use the default configuration options ("ssl.keystore.localtion" etc.). But if desired, the values can be overridden for given listener (again, as in Kafka broker "listener.name .<LISTENER_NAME>.ssl.keystore.location")
This should address both issues raised. But before I incorporate it into the KIP, I would love to get some feedback if this sounds OK. Please let me know what do you think ...
