> Currently, a limit query {{SELECT * FROM kafka LIMIT 10}} will be translated
> into TopN operator and will scan the full data in the source. However,
> {{LIMIT}} is a very useful feature in SQL CLI to explore data in the source.
> It doesn't make sense it never stop.
> We can support such case in streaming mode (ignore the text format):
> {code}
> flink > SELECT * FROM kafka LIMIT 10;
> kafka_key | user_name | lang | created_at
