    I would suggest another solution - rather than adding another interface 
'DelimiterProvider', add `getDelimiter()` which returns '.' as an interface 
default method to `MetricReporter`. Any reporter impl classes that don't 
override it will use the default delimiter.
    
    BTW, is it better to have `String getDelimiter()` rather than `char 
getDelimiter()`? Because 1) Flink has to convert char to string anyway 2) the 
former one provides more flexibility in defining delimiters, e.g. as multi 
chars

> By default Flink uses a period to separate scope components. This is however 
> not the default for all reporters, which results in either users having to 
> override the delimiter manually or reporters working around this issue.
> It would be cleaner if the would let reporters define their own default 
> delimiter.
