> Printing is a good point...definitely confusing in the case of an extension type! I think we have to punt on the printing...there isn't a way to customize how other Array objects are printed (it all goes through `ChunkedArray::ToString()`/`Array::ToString()` at the C++ level and that is very specifically a `PrettyPrint()` C++ thing. We have some tools available in R to improve the printing of all ArrowTabular/ChunkedArray/Arrays, and maybe a PR with that as its scope would be more appropriate. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
