   @wjones127 where is this implemented in the R package? (or which name is it 
using, I don't find it based on "duplicate")
   
   BTW, one of the possible workarounds that was being discussed above, using 
groupby, nowadays works because the "first"/"last" ordered aggregations have 
been added:
   
   ```
   In [19]: table = pa.table({'a': [1, 2, 1, 3], 'b': ['a', 'b','c', 'd']})
   
   In [20]: table.group_by("a", use_threads=False).aggregate([("b", "last")])
   Out[20]: 
   pyarrow.Table
   a: int64
   b_last: string
   ----
   a: [[1,2,3]]
   b_last: [["c","b","d"]]
   ```
