             Summary: [Python] Implement conversion between integer coded as floating points with NaN to an Arrow integer type
                 Key: ARROW-488
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-488
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Python
            Reporter: Wes McKinney


For example: if pandas has casted integer data to float, this would enable the integer data to be recovered (so long as the values fall in the ~2^53 floating point range for exact integer representation)
