             Summary: Array-Scalar Kernel Usage Improvement
                 Key: ARROW-16213
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16213
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Sub-task

When defining UDFs the ability to use a function on both scalar and array with a single function definition is important. Here using a function just written for array-like inputs on scalars is a vital component when providing better support. Further more, UDFs need to be consistent with the pre-registered functions in the function registry. Considering both usability and consistency, it is important to support this feature. 

This requirement was a part of discussion in Scalar UDF integration PR[1].
