+// FIXME: This is a very crude and error prone misuse of Array,

+// class. There seems to be confusion about how to construct an array
+// to be used with this method. Somewhere (e.g. in
+// Column::find_first()) we use Array(Allocator&). In other places
+// (TableViewBase::aggregate()) we use Array(no_prealloc_tag). We must
+// at least document the rules governing the use of
+// CreateFromHeaderDirect().
+//
+// FIXME: If we want to keep this methid, we should formally define
+// what can be termed 'direct read-only' use of an Array instance, and
+// wat rules apply in this case. Currently Array::clone() just passes
+// zero for the 'ref' argument.
+//
+// FIXME: Assuming that this method is only used for what can be
+// termed 'direct read-only' use, the type of the header argument
+// should be changed to 'const char*', and a const_cast should be
+// added below. This would avoid the need for const_cast's in places
+// like Array::clone().
