Nic Crane commented on ARROW-12707:
-----------------------------------
[~rokm] That's a good question and I think the answer is that there isn't a
good default value for `pattern`. The reason this ticket got created was that
I was implementing R bindings for this, and in the code for other similar
bindings, we set their options to the defaults if the user doesn't supply any
values for them. In this case though, I think that `pattern` should be
mandatory to be set manually.
Just wondering - is it consistent that `pattern` is an option argument or could
a case be made for it being a second input like `filter` and `take` have?
