Hi @mushketyk, while reviewing your PR I noticed a significant shortcoming
of the `TableSource` interface. `TableSource` does not support nested schemas.
IMO, this needs to be fixed before we can have a proper integration of Avro
integration with the Table API / SQL.
I created [FLINK-5280](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5280)
and also updated the description of this issue
([FLINK-3871](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3871). The
`KafkaJsonTableSource` needs to be reworked to support nested data as well
([FLINK-5281](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5281)).
I think we have to pause this PR until FLINK-5280 is resolved.
What do you think?
Best, Fabian
