Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-8235:
----------------------------------------------
Yes, base R emits null. (but you could maybe also use the name "KEEP" as
description for that, as you "keep the null" .. ;-))
> [C++][Compute] Filter out nulls by default
> ------------------------------------------

> The filter kernel currently emits null when a slot in the selection mask is
> null. For compatibility with Kleene logic systems like SQL, this behavior
> should be configurable. Provide an option enumeration:
> {code}
> struct FilterOptions {
> enum NullSelectionBehavior {
> /// null slots in the selection mask will drop the filtered value
> DROP,
> /// null slots in the selection mask will keep the filtered value
> KEEP,
> /// null slots in the selection mask will replace the filtered value with
> null
> EMIT_NULL,
> } null_selection_behavior;
> };
> {code}
