> This allows the user to do some work before the state's garbage collection.
> It seems kind of annoying, but on the other hand forgetting to set a final
> timer to flush state is probably data loss most of the time.
> FlinkRunner does this work very simply, but other runners, such as
> DirectRunner, need to traverse all the states to do this, and maybe it's a
> little hard.
