GitHub user martinstuder created a discussion: Repeated/replicated arrays

Does arrow support repeated/replicated arrays akin to run-encoded arrays 
(`RunArray`) or are there plans for supporting this in the future? What I have 
in mind is something like 
```
pub struct RepeatedArray {
    data_type: DataType,
    length: usize,
    values: Arc<dyn Array>,
}
```

where an underlying array would be replicated to a specified target length 
(similar to what `iter().cycle().take(length)` would do).
