Hi

Our requirement is related, we want our streams application to only process
messages from the last x weeks.
On new deployments this requires starting the application first, stopping
the application and then resetting the offsets.
I have created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8766 with the
idea to allow providing a custom offset selection mechanism.
No KIP has been filed yet but maybe it helps to aggregate similar cases.

best regards

Patrik
