Hi,
The only reason why it was not exposed at the beginning is that not all
versions of the consumers support starting from a specific timestamp. I
think we could expose such setting now. Would you like to create an
issue for it?
Best,

Examining the org.apache.flink.table.descriptors.Kafka class in Flink
v1.8, it has the following startUpModes for consumers:
.startFromEarliest()
.startFromLatest()
.startFromSpecificOffsets(...)
However, it does not have a method to support starting from a
Timestamp. The FlinkKafkaConsumer supports this feature though. Was it
a conscience decision to leave that start up mode out of the table
descriptor? If so, what was the reasoning?
