This is actually from the commit I brought into the PR from orignal
@zjureel's PR. That said I think the answer is definitely yes in the case that
matters for Flink. Indeed:
* The ActionRequest values here are actually coming from the implementation
of the `ElasticsearchSinkFunction.process` method which should create
`ActionRequest` and add them to the indexer.
* The idea here is not to create any sort of `ActionRequest` you would
possibly dream of but indexing requests?
* The way to create `ActionRequest` for indexing in Elasticsearch is to use
`org.elasticsearch.action.index.IndexRequest`
* starting with Elasticsearch 5.3 IndexRequest inherits from
`DocWriteRequest` while it was not before 5.3.
See:

So the only case I see where this could not be a `DocWriteRequest` would be
if someone in the `ElasticsearchSinkFunction` would create something else than
an index request. But I don't really see why?
That said this raises the question of why from the origin the API was not
typed against `IndexRequest` instead of `ActionRequest` as this would avoid
those questions and force the user to return a `IndexRequest`?
In every case there is little choice because starting with 5.3
Elasticsearch does not accept ActionRequest in BulkProcessor anymore but just
IndexRequest/DocWriteRequest.
Do you have a suggestion on how to handle this better? Obviously I can add
documentation saying starting with 5.3 the sink function MUST return
DocWriteRequest? But is that enough for you?
