Chetan your use case is not valid, if checkpointed is called after the
operator state is stored to local disk a similar storage function could be
performed. It is not necessary to wait for that same state to be
asynchronously moved to hdfs. Please provide an example of a valid use case
:)

+1 for fixing this bug/regression as Thomas suggested.
