Kenneth Knowles commented on BEAM-2140:
---------------------------------------

There is an open need to be able to set a timer with an associated _output_ 
watermark hold, which may be related. This has come up in conversation with 
[~reuvenlax].

For a processing time timer, it would be like {{timer.withOutputTime(new 
Instant(...)).setRelative(...)}} and for an event time timer, it would look 
similarly like {{timer.withOutputTime(new Instant(...)).set(...))}} and this 
would

These permit the {{@OnTimer}} callback to output elements with that timestamp. 
Both also manifest as output watermark holds.

It sounds like you want to set an event time timer if you want it to be fired 
on the input watermark going to +inf.
