Ismael: What is KIP-4? Until this is available, I think I'm stuck with AdminUtils. Is there any (java)doc available for it, or am I going to have to dig through the scala files and figure out what has changed? The new REST interface is a possibility, but, if I recall, it does not support, at least, createTopic.

The plan is to introduce `AdminClient` as part of KIP-4. The Kafka protocol additions for `createTopic` and `deleteTopic` are currently being discussed and it looks like they will be part of the next Kafka release based on current progress. The API of `AdminClient` hasn't been discussed yet, but it should be possible to support the methods you mentioned. Maybe you can provide your feedback as the KIP-4 discussions happen in kafka-dev?
