> Currently, the {{flink-connector-kafka}} module has a dependency on {{flink-table}} and {{flink-json}}. The reason seems to be that the module contains the {{KafkaJsonTableSource}} and {{KafkaJsonTableSink}}. Even though the {{flink-table}} and {{flink-json}} dependency are marked as optional, the {{flink-connector-kafka}} will still contain the table sources and sinks. I think this is not a clean design.
> I would propose to move the table sources and sinks into a dedicated module which depends on {{flink-connector-kafka}}. That way we would better separate dependencies and could remove {{flink-table}} and {{flink-json}} from {{flink-connector-kafka}}.
