> I read a big (taxi) csv file and specified that I wanted to dictionary-encode some columns. The resulting Table has ChunkedArrays with 1604 chunks. When I go to write this Table to the IPC file format (write_feather), I get an error: 
> {code}
>   Invalid: Dictionary replacement detected when writing IPC file format. Arrow IPC files only support a single dictionary for a given field accross all batches.
> {code}
> I can write this to Parquet and read it back in, and the roundtrip of the data is correct. We should be able to do this in IPC too.
