This supports dictionaries 'natively', that is, dictionaries are no longer unpacked. (If mixed dictionary and non-dictionary arguments are given, then they will be unpacked). For scalar conditions, the output will have the dictionary of whichever input is selected (or no dictionary if the output is null). For array conditions, the output will have the dictionary of the first input. Other dictionary indices will be remapped to this dictionary. If this is not possible, an error is raised. TODOs: - More complete testing with different dictionary index and value types - Support emitting nulls in the case that dictionary indices cannot be remapped - Check the R tests for skips that can be removed -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
