Ben Kietzman commented on ARROW-8059:
-------------------------------------

what will be the result of trying to serialize a local file system?

could be:
- failure (a local file system will not make sense if sent to another machine)
- success (but it would make sense if sent to another process on the same 
machine)
- either of the above, unless an adapter is provided (a local file system might 
be exposed to the network, so it could be wrapped for other machines by 
pre-pending the hostname or something)
