> The other possibly reasonable fix is that the null take indices should turn the StructArray's null buffer, rather than the null buffers of each of the fields. The issue I see with this approach is that managing nulls at the StructArray's null buffer, but not in the null buffers of each of the fields, can lead to uninitialized or default values in those fields. So, if someone tries to access those values using `column_by_name` without checking the StructArray's null bitmap, they could encounter unexpected behavior, right? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
