   Thanks again for the quick response @lidavidm 
   
   The current operation that does this is called `.select()` which accepts 
names and indices. However, this would require traversing the schema for 
finding all the nested structs (and I'd rather not do it in Python). Also, if 
there are any valid promotions, another cast would be needed. Therefore I think 
it makes sense to make it part of the `.cast` operation.
