> OnWindowExpiration requires that a DoFn be marked as using state/timers. However OnWindowExpiration does not actually mark that a DoFn needs state/timers. Therefore if you do not have any other state/timers in the DoFn, OnWindowExpiration is just never called.
> Likely not noticed as it was intended as a way to clean up state at the end of the window - but it's not guaranteed this is the case.
> Here's the relevant functions which should probably take into account if this function exists. Note these aren't consistent either - so not sure which is used in which case.
