output.format, if specified, takes "csv" or "json" as value, sets the output format of ConsumerGroupCommand to "csv" or "json"
loop, if specified, takes an integer value greater than 0, keeps executing the command at an interval of that many seconds until explicitly terminated by the admin/user
num.iterations, if specified terminates the loop after after that many iterations
Proposed Changes
Add JSON/CSV output and looping options to ConsumerGroupCommand. Neither of the these options depend on each other (you can loop in the human readable output, or do a single shot execution with JSON output). Existing behavior/output maintained if neither of the the options are used.
