> During release testing [~stefanrichter83@gmail.com] and I noticed that watermarks are not checkpointed in the window operator.
> This can lead to non determinism when restoring checkpoints. I was running an adjusted {{SessionWindowITCase}} via Kafka for testing migration and rescaling and ran into failures, because the data generator required determinisitic behaviour.
> What happened was that on restore it could happen that late elements were not dropped, because the watermarks needed to be re-established after restore first.
> [~aljoscha] Do you know whether there is a special reason for explicitly not checkpointing watermarks?
