Thanks. I agree that adding a `mask` argument to [`pa.MapArray.from_arrays()`](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.MapArray.html#pyarrow.MapArray.from_arrays) would be ideal. Then in the above example we could do ```py new = pa.MapArray.from_arrays( offsets=m.offsets, keys=m.keys, items=m.items, type=m.type, mask=m.is_null() ) ``` This would help solve the issue in [SPARK-48302](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-48302) which arose in https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/46529. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
