> Enabling [`strings_as_dictionary`](https://turbodbc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/advanced_usage.html?highlight=strings_as_dictionary#obtaining-apache-arrow-result-sets) in `turbodbc` returns a `ChunkedArray` of `dictionary` type (IIUC).
> I'd like to enable this for better performance however it seems not all functionality is implemented for `dictionary` types? In particular, `unique` seems not to be implemented:
> {code}
> In [40]: nmi.__class__.mro()
> Out[40]: [pyarrow.lib.ChunkedArray, pyarrow.lib._PandasConvertible, object]
> In [41]: nmi.type
> Out[41]: DictionaryType(dictionary<values=string, indices=int32, ordered=0>)
> In [42]: nmi.unique()
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "<ipython-input-42-0fcb7893d5c4>", line 1, in <module>
>     nmi.unique()
>   File "pyarrow\table.pxi", line 307, in pyarrow.lib.ChunkedArray.unique
>   File "pyarrow\error.pxi", line 106, in pyarrow.lib.check_status
> ArrowNotImplementedError: unique not implemented for dictionary<values=string, indices=int32, ordered=0>
> {code}
> It would be very useful if the `dictionary` type supported all the usual operations.
