I feel like this is the kind of use case where a hypothetical extension
type mechanism would be a better fit than hardcoding dedicated logical
types in the Thrift definition.
How would that look like? We wanted to introduce this logical type to
Parquet specifically, so that table formats such as Delta and Iceberg can
have a simpler protocol change, and that we could provide this as a
consistent format across multiple data processing engines.
Some initial discussion took place in
https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/451
(also dev ML message:
https://lists.apache.org/thread/tfd8hmfhl69rmml9wq97pr77y3h61zxg)
But it would need someone motivated to push through.
Regards
Antoine.
