[~klam-shop]Please could you give more detail as to how the downstream sinks 
can handle it.

Also I wonder how downstream operators would be effected by this mode.

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
>    Affects Versions: 1.20.1
>            Reporter: Kevin Lam
>            Priority: Minor

> Add a Format Option to the Debezium Format to optionally skip emitting the 
> UPDATE_BEFORE Rows when deserializing a Debezium message with op='u'.
> This is helpful for Flink SQL applications that want to operate in UPSERT 
> (ChangelogMode=[I,UA,D]) mode and save on processing the UPDATE_BEFORE Rows 
> since the downstream sinks can handle it.
