   Thanks all, the help is greatly appreciated.
   
   I'll try the FFI interface, it seems to be what I want. It looks like the 
workflow will involve `let ptr = export_array_to_c(some_series.to_arrow());` in 
Rust, and then `ImportArray` in R. I assume this will set all the appropriate 
metadata for me.
   
   Oddly neither `Array$import_from_c` nor 
[`ImportArray`](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/cfcce5a243981deb21b47c358059ea85488fee86/r/R/arrowExports.R#L227-L229)
 seems to be included in the R API docs, even though they're exported 
functions. I wonder if that could be added in a later release?
