Our teams use case would like to be able to use forRowFormat to processing streaming data. we use the size limit and time based sinks to create output files sinking to a s3 bucket. we would like the ability to add a header to these files. the header will be static across all file parts. I think this can be accomplished by whenever we open a new part file to inject a string before returning that bucketWriter for further processing. we have created a working prototype by modifying the method `[org.apache.flink.connector.file.sink.writer.FileWriterBucket#rollPartFile|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/release-1.18/flink-connectors/flink-connector-files/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/connector/file/sink/writer/FileWriterBucket.java#L249-L261]` where we will have the bucketwriter write a string when it opens a new part. and have added some pass through args and a method in FileSink to allow header variable to be set -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
