Hequn Cheng commented on FLINK-11447: ------------------------------------- Hi all, thank you all for your valuable suggestions. [~twalthr] [~dawidwys] OK, I think your concerns also make sense. Although the `create` approach hasn't introduced a new operator it may also bring some other problems. It may not very mature now. Considering this, I'm fine that we can start with the `joinLateral` method. What do you guys think?
