   As the Flink Iceberg connector is evolving, it would probably be better to support multiple versions of Flink. Otherwise users will lack the Iceberg connector improvements if they are not able to follow a forced Flink upgrade. Apache Beam can serve as example how this can be accomplished with a relatively small shim layer: https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/runners/flink
