Piotr Nowojski commented on FLINK-12025:
----------------------------------------

Our current solution with table functions is a stop gap until calcite supports 
{{FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF field_reference}}. This {{field_reference}} is the 
important bit. If that's so, then supporting this syntax for temporal tables 
and temporal table joins is a logical next step.

I guess this would require couple of things.
1. Frontend/api/table definitions changes (Currently temporal tables are 
expressed/registered as table functions). With {{FOR SYSTEM_TIME}} syntax there 
will be alternate way of accessing them.
2. adding a rewrite rule from {{FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF field_reference}} plan to 
temporal table join

> Support FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF in temporal table

> Since Calcite 1.19 has been released and "FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF" been 
> supported. I suggest we can support it in the temporal table.
