    Yes, it is but the problem is that the treatment of the "default 
parallelism" is a bit strange. (The default parallelism is the parallelism that 
is set from the flink config or by the user on the command line using the `-p` 
parameter. Maybe we have to rework that before we can fix this.
    
    I'm starting to think that we should maybe revert the 
parallelism/max-parallelism changes on the release-1.2 branch and rework the 
whole thing properly.
