   Following up on this issue, it would be great if dictionaries created from 
factors could be handled natively with dplyr functions without casting to a 
character vector where level information and ordering gets lost.
   
   A couple of other examples:
   
   ```
   arrow::Table$create(iris) %>% dplyr::filter(grepl("vir", Species)) %>% 
collect()
   
   Error in `compute.arrow_dplyr_query()`:
   ! NotImplemented: Function 'match_substring_regex' has no kernel matching 
input types (dictionary<values=string, indices=int8, ordered=0>)
   ```
   
   and sorting with arrange so that factor levels are respected:
   
   ```
   arrow::Table$create(ggplot2::diamonds) %>% dplyr::arrange(cut) %>% collect()
   
   Error in `compute.arrow_dplyr_query()`:
   ! NotImplemented: dictionary<values=string, indices=int8, ordered=1>
   ```
