This question brought to my attention that currently the Druid-Hive-Kafka 
ingestion is assuming that the Kafka Stream has to include a column called 
__time as timestamp column.

Looking at the code here seems confirming that 
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/a51e6aeaf816bdeea5e91ba3a0fab8a31b3a496d/druid-handler/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/druid/DruidStorageHandler.java#L301.

IMO this is a serious limitation, because user can not always guarantee that 
the kafka record always will contain a column called `__time`, we need to 
introduce a have a way to configure this, maybe via table property.
