Platform providers may want to disable hints completely for security reasons.
Currently, there is a configuration to disable OPTIONS hint - https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-master/docs/dev/table/config/#table-dynamic-table-options-enabled However, there is no configuration available to disable QUERY hints - https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-release-1.17/docs/dev/table/sql/queries/hints/#query-hints The proposal is to add a new configuration: Name: table.query-options.enabled Description: Enable or disable the QUERY hint, if disabled, an exception would be thrown if any QUERY hints are specified Note: The default value will be set to true.
