skipOutput flag is currently very misleading. From the description it seems 
that you can run a function and pass this flag to suppress any output. Thus if 
you provide an output topic and specify skipOutput, this flag will nullify the 
output topic. Maybe I can print a message while nulliyfing the output topic.
Otherwise I really don't understand the need for skipOutput. One other thing 
that we can do that if output topic is not set, don;'t write it. That might be 
a cleaner/clearer way than this whole outputTopic and skipOutput combination. 
What do you think @sijie @rdhabalia @jerrypeng
