I can attest to 'getting nervous about what the next surprise will be' with Kafka. And I'm only dealing with a single node right now.

Kafka and Confluent Platform are very much still works in progress. I had to patch Kafka Connect HDFS connector because a fix I needed was left out of the last release. Be prepared to do something similar with any of Kafka's components.
