[GitHub] [iceberg] RussellSpitzer opened a new issue #2594: Allow Type Promotion to String

RussellSpitzer opened a new issue #2594:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/2594


   Was talking with some users, they often find they have to convert numeric columns to strings because someone didn't realize that their numeric data was actually alpha-numeric. I haven't looked into this but would it be feasible to allow type promotion of any primitive type to string?
