Hi all, I just opened a KIP to add support for wildcard suffixed ACLs. This is one of the feature I talked about in my Kafka summit talk and we promised to upstream it :)
The details are here - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-290%3A+Support+for+wildcard+suffixed+ACLs There is an open question about the way to add the support in the AdminClient, which I can discuss here in more detail once everyone has taken a first look at the KIP. Looking forward to discuss the change. Best, Piyush Vijay
