> Currently, both {{KTable}} and windowed-{{KTable}} stores can be queried via
> IQ feature. While {{ReadOnlyKeyValueStore}} (for {{KTable}} stores) provide
> method {{all()}} to scan the whole store (ie, returns an iterator over all
> stored key-value pairs), there is no similar API for {{ReadOnlyWindowStore}}
> (for windowed-{{KTable}} stores).
> This limits the usage of a windowed store, because the user needs to know
> what keys are stored in order the query it. It would be useful to provide
> possible APIs like this (only a rough sketch):
> - {{keys()}} returns all keys available in the store (maybe together with
> available time ranges)
> - {{all(long timeFrom, long timeTo)}} that returns all window for a specific
> time range
> - {{allLatest()}} that returns the latest window for each key
> Because this feature would require to scan multiple segments (ie, RockDB
> instances) it would be quite inefficient with current store design. Thus,
> this feature also required to redesign the underlying window store itself.
> Because this is a major change, a KIP
> (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+Improvement+Proposals)
> is required. The KIP should cover the actual API design as well as the store
> refactoring.
