>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Python
>            Reporter: Wes McKinney

>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 2.0.0

> As follow up to ARROW-5028 and other issues, in a case like
> {code}
> vals = [['x' * 1024]] * ((2 << 20) + 1)
> arr = pa.array(vals)
> {code}
> The child array of the ListArray cannot hold all of the string data. After the patch for ARROW-5028, an exception is raised rather than returning a malformed array. We could (with some effort) instead produce a chunked array of list<string> type
