KIP-238 — Expose Kafka cluster ID in Connect REST API
Accepted Kafka 1.1 ConnectAdmin
Exposes the underlying Kafka cluster ID in the Connect REST API response for `GET /` (the root resource). Without this, operators managing multiple Connect clusters connected to different Kafka clusters cannot verify the Kafka cluster association from the Connect REST API alone, requiring access to broker configs or ZooKeeper.
