   > Does the dispatcher automatically expand scalar columns if there is no 
scalar kernel but there is an array kernel? Do you think we should expose 
scalar/array shape in this PR?
   
   No, we don't automatically expand scalars AFAIK. We could wrap Python 
kernels in this, or something similar: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/9fa34df27eb1445ac11b0ab0298d421b04be80f7/cpp/src/arrow/compute/kernels/util_internal.h#L70-L77
   
   This will do the expansion for you.
   
   I think we will eventually need to expose the distinction, but if we only 
support array shape for now, that's probably easier (as long as the interface 
extends naturally).
