> Currently streaming dropDuplicates simply stores all states forever if no watermark-attached key exists.
> For streaming stateful operator, this seems counterintuitive behavior if we consider other stateful operations such as streaming joining.
> It also means the number of state will grow up infinitely as we observe in real application. But it doesn't make sense to add a time column into dedup keys because we don't really deduplicate rows by [key, time] but only by [key].
> More reasonable streaming dedup seems to remove out-of-watermark states if the input data (not key) has watermark. This will be a behavior change, for streaming queries with dedup operation.
