---------------------------------

Hi [~aljoscha], would you please give more descriptions about this issue?

It seems this issue was opened long ago. Is it still an issue now?

> Currently, {{StreamTask}} and {{StreamOperator}} perform a complicated dance for certain operations. For example, when restoring from a snapshot, the state backends are restored in the {{StreamTask}}, but only after {{StreamTask}} calls restore on the operator and the operator asks for the backends. There is no clear separation/modularisation with properly defined interfaces right now.
> The code works right now but maintainability/understandability could be greatly improved.
