> When creating a Kafka client with {{bootstrap.servers}} set to "kafka-0:9092;kafka-1:9092;kafka-2:9092", it has a strange behaviour.
> For once, there's no warning or error messages. The client will connect and start working. However, it will only use the hostname after the last semicolon as bootstrap server!
> The configuration {{bootstrap.servers}} is defined as a {{List}} in {{AbstractConfig}}. So from a configuration point of view, "kafka-0:9092;kafka-1:9092;kafka-2:9092" is a single entry.
> Then, {{Utils.getHost()}} returns "kafka-2" when parsing that string.
> {code:java}
> assertEquals("kafka-2", getHost("kafka-1:9092;kafka-1:9092;kafka-2:9092"));
> {code}
> So the client ends up with a single bootstrap server! 
> I believe semicolon are not valid characters in hostname/domain names, so we should be able to provide better validation.
