I think serving data from multiple Kafka partitions gets unnecessarily hard if your "continue from this point" token is tied to a singular event ID. For that, it'd be better to have the "cursor token" be an arbitrary blob of data you repeat back to the server. Then the server can e.g. encode a list of partition->offset values into it.
