zeroshade opened a new issue, #43956: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/43956
### Describe the enhancement requested Instead of adding entirely new types, we should widen the existing Decimal128/256 types to allow bit widths of 32 and 64. This will require: - [ ] Update specification and Schema.fbs documentation - [ ] Implement basic type, arrays, builders, scalars - [ ] Update compute / acero kernels with the new types - [ ] Update Parquet implementation to leverage the new bitwidths where available - [ ] Add test cases for Decimal32/Decimal64 to existing tests and integration test cases ### Component(s) Format -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
