Hi Nicholas, I am not sure I understand your question about renaming. I think the most important member of the current Rule class is the Pattern, the KeySelector and PatternProcessFunction are more auxiliary if you will. That's why, I think, it would be ok to rename Rule to DynamicPatternHolder although it contains more than just a Pattern.
