   great, ill go with B then
   
   > Can you also please provide an test case that shows that this is actually 
a problem?
   
   i can build a foreign-shaped `FFI_ArrowSchema` in the test without needing 
an actual cpp or java producer: set `private_data` to a box that isnt a 
`SchemaPrivateData` with its own release callback, same shape the c data 
interface hands us. calling `with_metadata` on that today hits the [cast at 
ffi.rs#L246](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/blob/cb20cc4bfd0fd29bf31d4c4c5c783174d9fcbff6/arrow-schema/src/ffi.rs#L246)
 and reinterprets those bytes as our type. the test will show that returns 
`Err` after the fix instead of being UB
   
   ill also add a pyarrow roundtrip in arrow-pyarrow-integration-testing so 
theres a real cross-language case on top of the unit test. if thats alright, 
then ill get a PR otw :)
