frontend requirements: #2566 Hey @Haarolean I would like to take this up. Do we want to give the users a limited set of predefined formats, or do we want to give them full flexibility to input a date format which we can use to safely parse any date to? I think giving them a limited set of formats will be better as we will reduce uncertainty at runtime. And, that set of formats can come from a standard set of formats used around the globe.

We can also do a hybrid, where we provide a few standard formats & also let the user input their own format as text input. To reduce complexity we can parse and validate that date format and provide an appropriate error to the user.
 Discussed on discord: needs discussion

there are a few problems with this one:
1. we don't have a design solution for that one, yet
2. Not sure that we'd need this any longer since we implemented a dynamic timestamp format depending on the users' locale (US vs non-US), which looks like it's enough for now

 It would be useful if more granular (sub-second, like milliseconds) timestamp information could be displayed too
```suggestion
  /api/info/timestampformat:
``` - that's not related to kafka, let's make it `timestamp.format` for example
- D is a day of the year, we need dd
- also, let's use ddMM as a default one instead of MMdd
 Updated PR please check Updated PR please check nice
Make message timestamp format configurable
We changed default date format as requested in #2162.

We need the datetime format configurable on the frontend for the ones who prefer the US format or anything else.
