   @danny0405 Thanks for review!
   Regarding the 2 high-level questions:
   1. Yeah we have use case that is backfilling 1 partition (day) of 55 billion 
records using batch source, and it takes about 4-5 hours. It takes days to 
backfill a few days of data. Due to a variety of issues, the batch backfill job 
could fail from time to time due to network issues, infra issues and so on. 
This would waste all the progress before failure. So we're looking to enable 
checkpoint for such use case, so the existing progress could be saved and 
resumed.
   2. I agree on this actually. Users should make sure these are right. This PR 
would mainly focus on if user puts the different date ranges, and forgot to 
delete checkpoints, we should have the job fail fast instead of silently doing 
the wrong thing.
