   @tzulitai
   Thanks for pointing this out.
   I did some digging into the code and you are right.
   This pull request is needless.

> The kafka connector package only contains the FlinkFixedPartitioner implementation of the FlinkKafkaPartitioner.
> The most common usecase I have seen is the need to spread the records across the Kafka partitions while keeping all messages with the same key together.
> I'll put up a pull request with a very simple implementation that should make this a lot easier for others to use and extend.
