> Some state backends (e.g. RocksDB) always iterate a map state's keys in a well-defined order (their serialized/binary representation); others (e.g. the heap backend) don't. For example TemporalRowTimeJoinOperator could benefit from ordered iteration have currently no way today to detect this at runtime. 
> TemporalRowTimeJoinOperator (row-time FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF temporal joins) does a full scan of its left/probe-side state plus a fresh sort of its right/build-side state on every watermark-triggered timer firing, regardless of how many rows actually need processing on that firing. For a join with substantial buffered state, this is a recurring, cost that can be avoided once we expose the information that the underlying state is binary ordered.
