dgvj-work opened a new pull request, #1170:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/pull/1170

   ### Rationale for this change
   
   Downstream code often needs type-agnostic access to Arrow values as native 
Go types. `GetOneForMarshal` is JSON-oriented (e.g. `int8` → `float64`, 
timestamps/decimals as strings), which forces boilerplate type switches for 
generic ingestion.
   
   Fixes #462
   
   ### What changes are included in this PR?
   
   - Add `ValueAsAny(i int) any` to `arrow.Array`
   - Implement it across array types and common extensions so nulls return 
`nil` and values stay native (`int8`, `arrow.Timestamp`, decimal nums, `[]any` 
/ `map[string]any` for nested types)
   - Add unit tests covering primitives, temporal/decimal, nested, and 
dictionary cases, including differences vs `GetOneForMarshal`
   
   ### Are these changes tested?
   
   - `go test ./arrow/ ./arrow/array/ ./arrow/extensions/`
   
   ### Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   Yes — new `Array.ValueAsAny` method for native Go value access.
