Jonathan Keane closed ARROW-14378.
----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

We ended up supporting geo columns using the geoarrow package + extension types

> The major usecase for this is SF columns which have attributes/metadata for each element of a column. We originally stored these in our standard column-level metadata, but that was very fragile and took forever, so we disabled it ARROW-13189
> This will likely take some steps to accomplish. I've sketched out some in the subtasks here (though if we have a different approach, we could do that directly)
