Nicholas Jiang commented on FLINK-22748:
----------------------------------------

IMO, as [~twalthr] mentioned, the solution that use `WritableMetadata` makes 
sense to me. The config option for the dynamic target topic is less reasonable 
than writable metadata columns.

> Allow dynamic target topic selection in SQL Kafka sinks

> We should allow to write to different Kafka topics based on some column value 
> in SQL.
> The existing implementation can be easily adapted for that. The "target 
> topic" would be an additional persisted metadata column in SQL terms. All one 
> need to do is to adapt
> DynamicKafkaSerializationSchema
> KafkaDynamicSink
> We should guard this dynamic behavior via a config option and make the topic 
> option optional in this case.
