This is a ticket for creating an *official* apache/kafka-connect Docker image. 

Does this need a KIP?  -  I don't think so. This would be a new feature, not any API change. 

Why is this needed?
 # Kafka Connect is stateless. I believe this is why a Kafka image is not created?
 # It scales much more easily with Docker and orchestrators. It operates much like any other serverless / "microservice" web application 
 # People struggle with deploying it because it is packaged _with Kafka_ , which leads some to believe it needs to _*run* with Kafka_ on the same machine. 

I think there is separate ticket for creating an official Docker image for Kafka but clearly none exist. I reached out to Confluent about this, but heard nothing yet.
