Hi all,

I created some issues regarding to the discussion above,

https://github.com/ververica/flink-cdc-connectors/issues/1140
https://github.com/ververica/flink-cdc-connectors/issues/1138
https://github.com/ververica/flink-cdc-connectors/issues/1135

Maybe we can discuss them under these specific issues, thanks a lot !

Yours,
PENG
