Hi Weijie, Thanks for the FLIP! I have a few questions regarding the FLIP.
1. +1 to only use XXXParititionStream if users only need to use the configurable PartitionStream. If there are use cases for both, perhaps we could use `ProcessConfigurableNonKeyedPartitionStream` or `ConfigurableNonKeyedPartitionStream` for simplicity. 2. Should we allow users to set custom configurations through the `ProcessConfigurable` interface and access these configurations in the `ProcessFunction` via `RuntimeContext`? I believe it would be useful for process function developers to be able to define custom configurations. 3. How can users define custom metrics within the `ProcessFunction`? Will there be a method like `getMetricGroup` available in the `RuntimeContext`?
