Hi Ryan,

afaik there is no way to override this behaviour.

Did you have a look at the ProcessFunction [1]? Depending on your
specific requirements you might be able to re-implement the desired
functionality on top of it, but you will have to do all the
time-handling yourself and you do not have window-scoped state.

Cheers,

Konstantin
