------------------------------------------------------------------

cc [~saschahofmann] Is there anything that prevents you from recoding the CSV 
file before opening it with Arrow?
(what are your constraints? performance? file size?)

With some care, you could even implement a file-like object in Python that 
recodes data to UTF-8 on the fly. It should be accepted by {{csv.read_csv}}.
