Editing a Connector config with converter specific configs removes these

[philipp94831]

When editing a Kafka Connector config with converter specific configs, such as

"value.converter.schema.registry.url": "http://schema-registry:8081",

the config is removed fter updating it. The value converter used in this case is io.confluent.connect.avro.AvroConverter and configured as the default value converter for the Connect cluster. The converter specific config should not be removed in this case.

Some custom configurations will be overwritten and updated, such as database.history.producer.sasl.mechanism in debezium-connector.

This seems to depend on the backend/exact connector that is being used.
I tried gcs, http source, and S3 connectors, and they don't remove/change any properties.
@weeco Can you look into this and make sure it isn't an issue with the backend, or even the connector?

@philipp94831 What is the exact name of the connector you used?
Are you sending the update in JSON view, or do you switch back to the form view before updating?
Also, can you check the network tab in the chrome dev tools? There should be http PUT to the connector being sent that contains the new config.

Hi, I am using ElasticsearchSinkConnector. "value.converter.schema.registry.url": "http://schema-registry:8081" is part of the GET connectors request but not part of the PUT when updating the connector through form view. JSON view works
