Pal updated ARROW-10305:
------------------------
    Description: 
Hi,

Some expressions, such as substr(), grepl(), str_detect() or others, are not 
supported while filtering after open_datatset(). Specifically, the code below :

 

```library(dplyr)
 library(arrow)
 data = data.frame(a = c("a", "a2", "a3"))
 write_parquet(data, "Test_filter/data.parquet")

ds <- open_dataset("Test_filter/")

data_flt <- ds %>% 
 filter(substr(a, 1, 1) == "a")```

gives this error :

 

{{Error: Filter expression not supported for Arrow Datasets: substr(a, 1, 1) == 
"a"
 Call collect() first to pull data into R.}}

These expressions may be very helpful, not to say necessary, to filter and 
collect a very large dataset. Is there anything it can be done to implement 
this new feature ?

Thank you.
