> The spec states:
> > In the file format, there is no requirement that dictionary keys should be defined in a
> > {{DictionaryBatch}} before they are used in a {{RecordBatch}}, as long as the keys are
> > defined somewhere in the file. Further more, it is invalid to have more than one *non-delta*
> > dictionary batch per dictionary ID (i.e. dictionary replacement is not supported). Delta
> > dictionaries are applied in the order they appear in the file footer.
> This seems to suggest that dictionary deltas (but not replacements) are allowed.  However, both reading and writing an IPC file with a dictionary delta fails.
