> The RecordBatchReader interface is a key abstraction for the C stream API.  There is no great way today to convert a Table (or an iterable of batches) to a RecordBatchReader.
> DuckDb is currently doing this by wrapping the Table in an in-memory dataset and consuming it with a scanner but this has considerable overhead (especially if the Table has many batches).
> Alternatively, we could add bridge methods to export a table to a stream but I think this approach would be simpler.
