    # Rationale for this change
   
   With this you can do slicing of arrays via expression. For example, suppose 
you have this data frame:
   
   ```
   +----------------------+
   | a                   |
   +----------------------+
   | [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.0] |
   | [4.0, 5.0, 3.0]      |
   | [6.0]                |
   +----------------------+
   ```
   
   You could do `df.with_column("a[1:3]", column("a")[1:3])` to get
   
   ```
   +----------------------+------------+
   | a                    | a[1:3]     |
   +----------------------+------------+
   | [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.0] | [2.0, 3.0] |
   | [4.0, 5.0, 3.0]      | [5.0, 3.0] |
   | [6.0]                | []         |
   +----------------------+------------+
   ```
