    I think this goes into a good direction.
    I am wondering, though, if we need types like "time interval" in `flink-core`. I would prefer to keep then in the Table API scope.
    
    There can be a class `Types` in `flink-core` and one in `flink-table` - the table one extends the core one. That way you can have common types in core, extended types in table, and still get access to all by importing the `flink-table:Types` class.

> When we use {{ExecutionEnvironment#fromElements(X... data)}} it takes first element of {{data}} to define a type. If first Row in collection has wrong number of fields (there are nulls) TypeExtractor returns not RowTypeInfo, but GenericType<Row>
