>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: CEP
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0

> It would be a good addition to extend the pattern API to support quantifiers 
> known from regular expressions (e.g. Kleene star, ?, +, or count bounds). 
> This would considerably enrich the set of supported patterns.
> Implementing the count bounds could be done by unrolling the pattern state. 
> In order to support the Kleene star operator, the {{NFACompiler}} has to be 
> extended to insert epsilon-transition between a Kleene start state and the 
> succeeding pattern state. In order to support {{?}}, one could insert two 
> paths from the preceding state, one which accepts the event and another which 
> directly goes into the next pattern state.
