I appreciate the context, but I think if narrow wants such abstractions it should look to provide them itself. ArrowNativeType exists to serve the requirements of arrow-rs' array abstractions and not as a general purpose transmutation API. This is inherently a very unsafe part of the API and I would very much like to keep it focused to avoid unintentional soundness issues. Perhaps @alamb or @viirya might have thoughts on this? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
