**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** DuckDB has a replacement scan feature in the Python API that allows it to [directly access Python variables that are Arrow-based](https://duckdb.org/docs/stable/clients/python/data_ingestion#directly-accessing-dataframes-and-arrow-objects). This would mean that you wouldn't necessarily need to perform a `register_dataframe` step in advance; you could just query a variable directly. This would also be temporary; it wouldn't persist the dataframe as a registered object in the session. **Describe the solution you'd like** If a table name is not found among the registered Is there some way to implement an order of operations for finding tables with a certain name? I.e. inject some code so that if a table `x` isn't found already-registered, then it can evaluate whether the Python variable `x` is Arrow-like? **Describe alternatives you've considered** A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered. **Additional context** I could implement the Python side of this, but I don't know the DataFusion API well enough to know where to find the hooks or how to connect to them. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
