Looking at that ticket and reading the comments it looks like one of the concern is as follows.
"offsets.retention.minutes is designed to handle the case that a consumer group goes away forever. In that case, we don't want to store the offsets for that group forever." This can simply be addressed by setting offset.retention == log.retention by default right? In which case offset wont be stored forever even when consumer group goes away forever. When the consumer group goes away forever the upper bound to clean up offsets would be equal to log.retention.
