Nate Clark updated ARROW-12661:
-------------------------------
Description:
Some programs generate csv files with additional descriptive information about
the columns on a row after the names. For files like this it would be nice to
have an option which reads the first row as column names and then can skip
those rows after the names.
This could probably be implemented easily as either another option parallel
ReadOptions::skip_rows or a boolean which indicates if skipping should occur
before or after the column names are read.
