Kafka topic monitoring auth type

Hello, I am interested in using crowdsec to monitor a kafka topic. I do not have a client key to access the topic. I typically connect to this topic using plain sasl with username and password. It appears that this auth type is not supported by the crowdsec kafka data source. Is this something that crowdsec would consider supporting?

Yes this is something we would want to support since other providers such as azure only allow you to do this authentication type:

You can track the development of this via Add SASL authentication for Kafka acquisition · Issue #3336 · crowdsecurity/crowdsec · GitHub
