**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** The current APIs are functional and with some source code digging, you can use them to accomplish your goals. However, I think it would be fair to note that they are not so convenient or easy to use as the comparable Python (or other language) implementations. Particularly on the client side. **Describe the solution you'd like** Extend the existing basic implementation and make it easier for developers to work with Flight in rust. Some ideas include: - constructors for important types - support for useful traits (e.g.: From, Display) for important types - restrict access to "untyped" data (e.g.: Vec<u8>) and provide more typing **Describe alternatives you've considered** Look at the existing C++/Java/Python implementations for inspiration **Additional context** It should be as simple to create Flight client/servers in rust as it is in C++ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
