Description

Flink implementation is often a part of the larger application. As a result a synchronized management - clean up of Flink resources, when a main application is deleted is important. In Kubernetes, a common approach for such clean up is usage of the owner's reference (https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/garbage-collection/)

Adding owner reference support to Flink Job manager would be a nice addition to Flink kubernetes native support to accommodate such use cases
