Github user mbalassi commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1563#issuecomment-177088061 With the `RollingHDFSSink` this functionality is not needed any more and as you suggested apparently was a misleading implmentation anyway. I like your not to the docs. :+1: Could you add `[api-breaking]` to the commit msg though please, when merging?
