This looks useful. Given Kafdrop allow deleting topic it would be helpful it allows also writing to a topic. Otherwise a developer would need to use the kafka-cli to do the same

Hello @Bert-R !

Sorry for pinging you. I saw that you were merging last PRs. Could you look at this PR?

[Bert-R]

I'll take a look, but it has quite some merge conflicts. Not sure whether I'll find the time to resolve these. @fchishti Any chance you can do that?

@fchishti @Bert-R Any plans to integrate this?

[Bert-R]

If @fchishti or someone else resolves the conflicts, I can take a look.

@Bert-R please help us to take a look, sir.

Is there a way to have this as a feature flag. I think it would be great for a QA environment, but quite scary under a production environment.
