> Currently camel-kafka uses ForegroundTask for the create/subscribe steps during reconnection (KafkaFetchRecords). The overall reconnection loop runs in its own thread with a do/while loop, so the retry state is not visible via the internal-tasks dev console or TUI.
> Other components like camel-sjms and camel-pgevent use BackgroundTask which registers with the TaskManagerRegistry during the entire retry period, making reconnection attempts visible to operators via:
> - camel get internal-task (CLI)
> - Internal Tasks tab in the TUI
> - JMX ManagedTaskManagerRegistry
> Switching camel-kafka to use BackgroundTask for its reconnection loop would let users observe retry progress, attempt count, delay, elapsed time, and errors when a Kafka broker goes down.
