             Summary: Consolidate streaming FieldAccessor functionality
                 Key: FLINK-5156
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5156
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Márton Balassi


The streaming FieldAccessors (keyedStream.keyBy(...)) have slightly different 
semantics compared to their batch counterparts. 

Currently the streaming ones allow selecting a field within an array (which 
might be dangerous as the array typeinfo does not contain the length of the 
array, thus leading to a potential index out of bounds) and accept not only 
"*", but also "0" to select a whole type.

This functionality should be either removed or documented. The latter can be 
achieved by effectively reverting [1]. Note that said commit was squashed 
before merging.
