Hi, Very thanks for Jinsong to bring up this discussion! It should largely improve the usability after enhancing the FileSystem connector in Table.
I have the same question with Piotr. From my side, I think it should be better to be able to reuse existing StreamingFileSink. I think We have began enhancing the supported FileFormat (e.g., ORC, Avro...), and reusing StreamFileSink should be able to avoid repeat work in the Table library. Besides, the bucket concept seems also matches the semantics of partition. For the notification of adding partitions, I'm a little wondering that the Watermark mechanism might not be enough since Bucket/Partition might spans multiple subtasks. It depends on the level of notification: if we want to notify for the bucket on each subtask, using watermark to notifying each subtask should be ok, but if we want to notifying for the whole Bucket/Partition, we might need to also do some coordination between subtasks.

Is it about exposing StreamingFileSink in the Table API? Or do you want to implement new Sinks/Sources?
