> Somewhat related to ARROW-6386 on the interpretation of nulls, we currently have the following behaviour:
> {code}
> In [28]: pa.NULL == pa.NULL                                                                                                                                                                                        
> Out[28]: True
> {code}
> Which I think is certainly unexpected for a null / missing value. I still need to check what the array-level compare kernel does (NULL or False? ideally NULL I think), but we should follow that.
