Review Comment:
   agreed, if a snapshot is not found in the table, it's bad. It indicates the 
reader's checkpoint is too old. There is no nice way to recover from this, 
except clearing your checkpoints and restarting.
   
   this happen to me because I was clearing my snapshots every hour. I realized 
then that this made no sense and that I should keep a week of snapshot. Readers 
have up to a week to fix any streaming job which went down.
   
   So I'm all good with throwing an exception that points the user to the fact 
that the checkpointed snapshot ID is no longer available in the table.
