It seems that
[FLINK-2167](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2167?jql=project%20%3D%20FLINK%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20AND%20text%20~%20%22hcatalog%22%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC)
is also facing this api design issue. This will also impact other issues of
`fromXXX()` methods for the table api. I will try to implement a version that
move the TableEnvironment to to `org.apache.flink.api.table` then we can
discuss afterward.
