> Reporters that identify metrics with a set of key-value pairs are currently limited to the variables defined by Flink, like the taskmanager ID, with users not being able to supply their own.
> This is inconsistent with reporters that use metric identifiers that freely include user-defined groups constructted via {{MetricGroup#addGroup(String name)}}.
> I propose adding a new method {{MetricGroup#addGroup(String key, String name)}} that adds a new key-value pair to the {{variables}} map in it's constructor. When constructing the metric identifier the key should be included as well, resulting in the same result as when constructing the metric groups tree via {{group.addGroup(key).addGroup(value)}}.
> For this a new {{KeyedGenericMetricGroup}} should be created that resembles the unkeyed version, with slight modifications to the constructor and {{getScopeComponents}} method.
