   Yes, I'm currently working on recovering the original time zone after 
ingesting data, if and only if the initial string representations of the 
timestamps contained a single unique offset. It works reliably enough, but 
since I can only parse timestamps with fixed offsets in Arrow, the offsets are 
also the only `tz` representation I can recover. But I understand your point 
that identifiers would be more useful, and that even then there would be no way 
currently to represent mixed timezones without extracting the timezone into a 
separate column.
