+1 to this FLIP. This is very useful for teams building a Flink platform to run jobs from an external user
+1 on Danny's comment on adding a configuration to allow inverted order of overrides. However, might it be better to include an "override" toggle in the REST API itself? That way we can change the flink configuration override behaviour without restarting the Flink cluster. This would make sense if we are thinking of a Session cluster and deploying multiple Flink jobs to the same cluster.

We actually have an internally forked equivalent of this, which is on our list to try to upstream. Your proposal would *almost* work "off the shelf" for us. We have an inverted order or priority: - Rest API / Flink CLI > User Code > Cluster Config This is because our end users do not submit their jobs directly, our service does it on their behalf. For our usecase we do not want to allow users to override certain values we set, since some are managed from our service configuration, example: checkpointing interval. How would you feel about including a cluster configuration to invert the order? This could be decoupled to a follow-up FLIP.
