Uwe Korn commented on ARROW-7071:
---------------------------------

API-wise I would prefer Wes' suggestion. I have had the use case before that I 
need to use a different validity bitmap but in my case I only added nulls and 
didn't expose undefined values.

> [Python] Add Array convenience method to create "masked" view with different 
> validity bitmap
