Description
Currently the controller will not do preferred leader elections automatically when a reassignment is in progress. If a broker crashes or is restarted with a reassignment in progress, this leaves the leadership massively skewed until the reassignment completes. I am not sure if there is a good reason for this, but it seems not ideal.
