Hey David, that would be something I think we should support with moving administrative functions into the broker and accessed over new Admin Request/Response wire protocol calls. There are a few steps though I think first in doing that. One is https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1694 so we can wrap around all of our tools in one place (after that I think moving them to the broker would be feasible). I still late on updating that ticket with a few discussions from the mailing list and more design (hopefully this weekend but likely early next week). I have a note to create a sub ticket (or such) for the admin request/response changes too.
