> Kafka Connect connectors and tasks fail when they run into an unexpected situation or error, but the framework should provide more general "bad data handling" options, including (perhaps among others):
> # fail fast, which is what we do today (assuming connector actually fails and doesn't eat errors)
> # retry (possibly with configs to limit)
> # drop data and move on
> # dead letter queue
> This needs to be addressed in a way that handles errors from:
> # The connector itself (e.g. connectivity issues to the other system)
> # Converters/serializers (bad data, unexpected format, etc)
> # SMTs
> # Ideally the framework as well, though we obviously want to fix known bugs anyway
