   @alamb I’m happy to report that all of "Stack A" has now merged upstream! 
That was the easier part, since those commits were mostly independent bug fixes 
and small refactors laying the groundwork for the larger changes that follow.
   
   As we discussed, I was planning to submit the next stack as [native stacked 
GitHub 
PRs](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/reference/stacked-pull-requests). 
Unfortunately, I hadn’t accounted for one limitation: all branches in a native 
stack, including its target branch, **must live in the same repository**. 
That's a bummer, and means I can’t use this workflow to target upstream while 
hosting the branches on my fork.
   
   Would it be possible to arrange for the stack’s branches to be hosted in 
`apache/arrow-rs`? If granting me the access needed to push those branches is 
an option, I’d be happy to follow whatever conventions or restrictions you 
prefer (I wouldn't need access to `main`.)
   
   I think a native stack would give reviewers the best experience: each commit 
would have a focused diff, while its place in the overall design would remain 
visible. The commits are individually correct and tested, so submitting them 
one at a time is possible; my concern is that reviewing them in isolation would 
make the broader architectural changes harder to follow.
   
   If hosting the branches upstream isn’t practical, I’m very happy to find 
another approach together!
   
   Thanks again for all your help getting this upstream 🙇
