@pitrou Thanks for the reviews, I appreciate it. I wonder if we're not making this too big. Casting `int -> float`, `int -> decimal`, etc doesn't make much sense to me, and I don't think people expect much more than widening of the same type, such as `string -> large_string`, instead of also allowing `string -> binary`. I'm not interested in these special cases at least, it is just in here because the original author did this, but I'm also fine with only including the obvious and getting rid of all the flags. This also makes it much simpler, WDYT? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
