Absolutely correct.

Very much so.

I tried using stream punctuations but it is hard to know which one is the
"last" punctuation, since after some time I might have mutliple in there.
Imagine stream A has in total about 100M messages. We insert a Punctuation
as message number 100.000.001. Works.
Next week we need to start the job again. Stream A now has 110M messages and
2 punctuation marks. One at the 100.000.001 and one at 110.000.001.
 I cannot decide which one is the latest while processing the the stream.

This has the issue that while stream A is being processed, I lose tuples
from stream B because it is not "stopped".I think my use case is currently
not really doable in Flink.-- Jonas
