[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-2536) topics tool should allow users to alter topic configuration

Gwen Shapira created KAFKA-2536:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: topics tool should allow users to alter topic configuration
                 Key: KAFKA-2536
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2536
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Gwen Shapira


When we added dynamic config, we added a kafka-config tool (which can be used to maintain configs for non-topic entities), and remove the capability from kafka-topic tool.

Removing the capability from kafka-topic is:
1. Breaks backward compatibility in our most essential tools. This has significant impact on usability.
2. Kinda confusing that --create --config works but --alter --config does not. 

I suggest fixing this.
