What about changing the default USER in the dockerfile?

[yebyen → oliveralbertini]

I think you're not the only one that mentioned this omission, I'll throw in since it seems to be pretty poorly highlighted and has some surprising failure modes:

When you use the USER directive to set up a working user in Dockerfile, be explicit about UID and use the numeric UID.

What works 99% of the time is to use alpha username in the "USER" directive. You can get some surprising artifacts if the container runtime hits this rare bug[1]. There are likely several other great ways this can go wrong, as well. Somewhere deep in the manual, it is suggested that you should only use a numeric UID, even though USER accepts an alphanumeric username most of the time, but if you look at container images built by OpenShift and other pro docker-ers, you will see they always do this with a numeric UID.

Interesting, we use rabbitmq instead of kafka and we have a re-indexation system... not sure if it's more complex for what I see.
