Ah, I hadn't realized we had `newlines_in_values`. Yes, sounds like there is a bit of complexity but you have a good grip on it. > I assume that skip_rows would have to be kept but deprecated. I don't think so but I'll let @pitrou weigh in. As long as there is a good reason for it the project seems to be in a place where breaking changes are ok. Especially since this one would be pretty trivial to understand and adapt to. > There might be a way to also tackle https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8527 with this change. That would be good. Eventually the dataset scanner will probably be getting a skip operation of some kind as well so that'll increase the pressure on ARROW-8527. ARROW-12598 is also (admittedly tangentially) related since you seem to be on a roll :smile: -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
