There's nothing stopping me assigning timestamps and generating watermarks on a keyed stream in the implementation and the KeyedStream API supports it. It appears the underlying operator that gets created in DataStream.assignTimestampsAndWatermarks() isn't key-aware and globally tracks timestamps. So is that what's technically preventing assigning timestamps per key from working?
I'm curious to hear Aljoscha's thoughts on watermark management across keys.
Thanks!
