   Apologies one other question; is it possible to add metadata at the column 
level or is it restricted purely to the table level?  At least when I try this 
in R I can't see any `metadata` attribute for the columns
   
   ```
   library(arrow)
   i2 <- arrow_table(iris)
   str(i2$Sepal.Length)
   ```
   
   ```
   Classes 'ChunkedArray', 'ArrowDatum', 'ArrowObject', 'R6' <ChunkedArray>
     Inherits from: <ArrowDatum>
     Public:
       .:xp:.: externalptr
       as_vector: function () 
       cast: function (target_type, safe = TRUE, ...) 
       chunk: function (i) 
       chunks: active binding
       clone: function (deep = FALSE) 
       Equals: function (other, ...) 
       Filter: function (i, keep_na = TRUE) 
       initialize: function (xp) 
       invalidate: function () 
       length: function ()

       num_chunks: active binding
       pointer: function () 
       print: function (...) 
       set_pointer: function (xp) 
       Slice: function (offset, length = NULL) 
       SortIndices: function (descending = FALSE) 
       Take: function (i) 
       ToString: function () 
       type: active binding
       type_id: function () 
       Validate: function () 
       View: function (type)
