Hi all! There's an ongoing discussion about introducing a dedicated scalar type for `StringDType`. One of the remarks was that the scope of the change is large enough so it deserves a separate paragraph in the NEP 55. It's also vital to collect more opinions from the community before the actual work, therefore here's a list of active discussion threads:
- An official issue for StringDType scalar: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/28165 - PR which updates NEP 55 to describe StringDType scalar: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/28842 - Draft PR meant to ship the feature (goes after NEP 55 update): https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/28196 Please share your thoughts!
