It was done in KIP-421 <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=100829515>, though I guess it's not really documented very well (feel free to open a JIRA for that). By default Apache Kafka has a FileConfigProvider and DirectoryConfigProvider which both use the local file system. On Kubernetes it is possible to use these to access passwords stored in a Kubernetes Secret by using a Secret volume mount. It is also possible to implement the interface in terms of things like Vault or similar (e.g. see https://github.com/jcustenborder/kafka-config-provider-vault or https://github.com/provectus/kafka-connect-vault-config-provider).
