Tim Armstrong commented on PARQUET-1171:
----------------------------------------

BIT_PACKED is deprecated so I don't think it makes sense to extend the current 
encoding. It's weird in that it packs the bits in the different order to the 
supported RLE encoding. We could add a new BIT_PACKED encoding with the bits in 
the safe order as RLE, but I think in practice either the RLE hybrid or some 
form of delta encoding will give you the same benefits as pure bit-packed in 
practice.

> [C++] Support RLE and BITPACKED as encodings for data
