Can we expect Parallel Consumer to work with Kafka 4.0.0 client, projected end January 2025?

My primary reasons for asking this, is because of Java 24 uptake.

One of the things that will be in that version is the permanent removal of the security manager. We are currently on Java 23, and we have to use the flag -Djava.security.manager=allow to be able to run our service. That option will no longer be available in Java 24, and this requires us to migrate to Kafka 4.0.0, once that hits. Curious whether we are expecting this to be a drop-in replacement, without disruptions to the Parallel Consumer library.

@astubbs - gentle reminder for the above open question?
