Note!!
There are 2 Kafka charms in play here. "kafka" provides the Bigtop kafka package, but will not work in a network restricted environment. "apache-kafka" provides the vanilla upstream kafka package, and does have a mechanism for installing in a net-restricted env.
Only "kafka" contains this interface binding functionality. I'll leave this bug opened to track the progress of bringing this feature into the "apache-kafka" charm.
Apologies for the delayed response here, but the issue raised in comment #5 was addressed in the following PRs:
