it's not supported in 0.8. For our current problem we'll have to dig a
little further on how to approach it. Batching and compressing before
sending to the producer is straight-forward enough, but the semantic

Chris,
Thanks for bringing up this part. Yes, in 0.8, we don't really support a
custom event handler. This is because (1) the producer send logic is a bit
more complicated since it has to issue metadata requests whenever leaders
change; (2) we are not aware of too many use cases of custom event ha
We're a heavy 0.7 user and are now digging into 0.8 for some new projects.
One of the features we used in 0.7 appears to be different and not clearly
supported in 0.8.
We use the EventHandler plug-point in 0.7, specifically to do custom
batching before the messages are actually sent to the broker.
