> For data where the metadata itself is large (> 10000 fields), doing a full in-memory reconstruction of a record batch may be impractical if the user's goal is to do random access on a potentially small subset of a batch. 
> I propose adding an API that enables "cheap" inspection of the record batch metadata and reconstruction of fields. 
> Because of the flattened buffer and field metadata, at the moment the complexity of random field access will scale with the number of fields -- in the future we may devise strategies to mitigate this (e.g. storing a pre-computed buffer/field lookup table in the schema)
