Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-3664:
--------------------------------------

Hi Todd, thanks for sharing your work so far. I briefly skimmed the linked 
commit and it looks pretty good to me. My only comments right now would be to 
add a few more tests, but that's on your to do list anyways.

I'm on vacation right now and will return in a few days. It would be nice if 
you could continue with your work and open a PR when you think it is ready. 
Unless nobody else has had a detailed look, I'll review it when I'm back. 

Btw. this work is also relevant in the context of the currently on-going 
efforts to add support for SQL as it allows to gather basic statistics on a 
DataSet.

Thanks, Fabian
