    Description

      The Authorizer does not define an standard exceptions that can be used by an implementer. This means that any exception thrown on the broker, as a part of KAFKA-3266, can only be passed back to the client as an UnknownException(-1) making error handling difficult. A set of standard exceptions covering most foreseeable exceptions should be defined as a part of the interface and used in the default SimpleAclAuthorizer.

      This work will require a small KIP.
