tshauck opened a new issue, #7445:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7445
### Describe the bug
Hi, I think there may be an issue when trying to create an external table
using a custom file type and compression... e.g. when I run:
```sql
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE vcf_file STORED AS VCF COMPRESSION TYPE GZIP LOCATION
'file.vcf.gz'
```
I get the error:
```
Plan("File compression type can be specified for CSV/JSON files.")
```
VCF is my file type, and I can create an external table of the uncompressed
version.
The error I think is to be interpreted as _only_ those file types given the
logic:

### To Reproduce
_No response_
### Expected behavior
I guess I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I'd expect to be able to create
an external table with a file type that support compression but is not json or
csv.
### Additional context
I put together a quick branch I can open up as a PR if this turns out to be
an actual bug.
