Ingo Bürk commented on FLINK-22737:
-----------------------------------
Thanks everyone for the productive discussion. I think we reached a good
conclusion now, and I will shortly open a PR for this:
# CURRENT_WATERMARK(<rowtimeAttribute>)
# Returns the same data type as <rowtimeAttribute>, but with a precision of 3
# If no watermark has been emitted, it returns NULL
# We'll make sure to document this very explicitly and with an example.
> Add support for CURRENT_WATERMARK to SQL

> With a built-in function returning the current watermark, one could operate
> on late events without resorting to using the DataStream API.
> Called with zero parameters, this function returns the current watermark for
> the current row – if there is an event time attribute. Otherwise, it returns
> NULL.
