> As for 0.10.0.0, the worker threads (i.e. {{StreamThreads}}) can possibly encounter the following runtime exceptions:
> 1) {{consumer.poll()}} could throw KafkaException if some of the configuration are not accepted, such as topics not authorized to read / write (security), session-timeout value not valid, etc; these exceptions will be thrown in the first ever {{poll()}}.
> 2) {{task.addRecords()}} could throw KafkaException (most likely SerializationException) if the deserialization fails.
> 3) {{task.process() / punctuate()}} could throw various KafkaException; for example, serialization / deserialization errors, state storage operation failures (RocksDBException, for example),  producer sending failures, etc.
> 4) {{maybeCommit / commitAll / commitOne}} could throw various Exceptions if the flushing of state store fails, and when {{consumer.commitSync}} throws exceptions other than {{CommitFailedException}}.
> For all the above 4 cases, KafkaStreams does not capture and handle them, but expose them to users, and let users to handle them via {{KafkaStreams.setUncaughtExceptionHandler}}. We need to re-think if the library should just handle these cases without exposing them to users and kill the threads / migrate tasks to others since they are all not recoverable.
