Gidon Gershinsky commented on ARROW-8040:
-----------------------------------------
Yep, I understand. But with this being a data protection technology, we need to
take extra care to keep it secure.
Regarding C++ - we're building this bottom up, starting with a cipher layer,
then low-level encryption layer, then the high-level layer. No way this'd be
accepted by the community as a single PR. The current situation is not ideal,
it'd be good to merge the high-level PR (and maybe hide the low level), but
here we are; also, C++ is a kind of a low-level language; Python would expose
it to a less experienced audience.
