Hello fellow devs, I made a draft trying to coalesce some of the ideas I've had for a long time regarding a functionality that would be really nice to have: External Functions. I think it should be pretty easy to implement at least initially re-using some of the Python UDF infrastructure, especially on the optimizer and runtime side. The document is here:
