Seth Wiesman commented on FLINK-16835:
--------------------------------------

My intuition from a user perspective of how I would expect this to work. 

flink-conf.yaml < TableEnvironment < Query

flink-conf.yaml to allow setting cluster-wide defaults for all config options.
TableEnvironment to allow setting deployment wide defaults.
Query level which equates to a single flink job although this might be out of 
scope for this ticket. 

I would find it surprising if the StreamExecutionEnvironment affected 
table-specific configurations.

> In order to allow reading and writing of configuration from a file or 
> string-based properties. We should consider removing {{TableConfig}} and 
> fully rely on a Configuration-based object with {{ConfigOptions}}.
> This effort was partially already started which is why 
> {{TableConfig.getConfiguration}} exists.
> However, we should clarify if we would like to have control and traceability 
> over layered configurations such as {{flink-conf,yaml < 
> StreamExecutionEnvironment < TableEnvironment}}. Maybe the {{Configuration}} 
> class is not the right abstraction for this.
