Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-462:
-----------------------------------
Ah, that makes sense. This may be possible to provide with
{{std::unordered_map}} but maybe not in a simple way.
> [C++] Implement in-memory conversions between non-nested primitive types and
> DictionaryArray equivalent

> We use a hash table to extract unique values and dictionary indices. There
