   I'm not entirely sure what is being proposed here, it is insufficient for 
ordering of kernels to be solely based on their generic types, but the 
arrow-ord kernels don't do this, as they check the DataType.
   
   Looking at the linked code, decimals are supported provided they have the 
same precision and scale.
   
   As for intervals I didn't think we supported them, however, looking at the 
code it will currently order them based on comparison of the i32/i64/i128. This 
is potentially surprising, but it is a total order and may be the best we can 
do here... :sweat_smile:
