### Feature Request / Improvement When writing data using Python, we want to leverage external dependencies that write the actual data. This is because there are many libraries out there that do a great job, and we don't want to reinvent the wheel. I think we can mirror the read path, where we use `pq.read_table`, we can use `pq.write_table`, and leverage the `metadata_collector` to collect the statistics that need to be stored in the `ManifestEntry`. To make the PR small, I would be to start with unpartitioned tables only, to avoid having to construct the right path. ### Query engine None -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
