Yaron Gvili commented on ARROW-16211:
-------------------------------------

Side note: I have developed PyArrow wrappers for the nested registries as part 
of a prototype for UDFs that I should be able to contribute when the time comes.

I agree documentation of nested registries can be improved, both inside the 
code and in doc pages. We do have a 
[couple|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/902781d1f3a41563a23d6755433a8e40ce82de7b/cpp/src/arrow/compute/registry_test.cc#L119]
 of [test 
cases|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/902781d1f3a41563a23d6755433a8e40ce82de7b/cpp/src/arrow/compute/registry_test.cc#L213].
 Please create jiras for what you think is missing.

> In general, when using UDFs, the user defines a function expecting a 
> particular outcome. When building the program, there needs to be a way to 
> update existing function kernels if it expands beyond what is planned before. 
> In such situations, there should be a way to remove the existing definition 
> and add a new definition. To enable this, the unregister functionality has to 
> be included.
