Kuan Po Tseng commented on KAFKA-16975:
---------------------------------------
+1 on this, perhaps we can should set `Errors.INVALID_REQUEST.code` and refine
the error message.
[~chia7712] , I'm willing to solve this if you are not working on this one,
thanks !

> The error message of creating "__cluster_metadata" by admin is "Authorization
> failed.". That could confuse users that it implies you "can" create it in
> using root. However, the fact is that we DISALLOW users to create it as a
> regular topic even though you are the boss :)
