Rajini Sivaram commented on KAFKA-7588:
---------------------------------------

[~mimaison] Are you planning to submit a PR for this? I was interested in custom configs in callback handlers, but as you said, it will be good to do this consistently for all configurables. Thanks.

> There are a lot of extensions points both on the client and server sides. Most of these pluggable APIs are configurable but the configurations they receive are not the same.
> For example, Serializers, Deserializers, Partitioners, Assignors, QuotaCallbacks are passed config.originals(). On the other hand LoginModules, PrincipalBuilders and AuthenticationCallbackHandlers are passed config.values().
> In practice, having access to originals() is nice as it allows to use custom configurations by simply adding it to the client/server configuration.
