   I think the main point here is that this feature will not be available to 
Dataflow by default since Dataflow overrides the Beam Pub/Sub I/O with a native 
connector. So additional work will need be to be done by the Dataflow team to 
fully enable this feature to all runners. I think vast majority of Beam Pub/Sub 
I/O users use Dataflow, hence if this PR is merged without additional Dataflow 
changes (or at least a timeline for such changes) many Beam Pub/Sub IO users 
will end up with a connector that is in an inconsistent state. 
   
   Also noting that Dataflow users can choose to use the Beam Pub/Sub I/O 
connector by using the experiment "enable_custom_pubsub_source" but this has 
known limitations for Dataflow and currently not supported by that runner.
