lmocsi opened a new issue, #37071:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/37071

   ### Describe the enhancement requested
   
   Right now, ds.dataset() can include the partition key in the result if 
partitioning='hive' option is used.
   However, this partition key column is returned as a str, though it used to 
be a date.
   Would be nice, if it was returned as a datetime column, if it is in the 
standard ISO format.
   
   ```
   import pyarrow.dataset as ds
   
   mytab = ds.dataset("my_table_name", partitioning='hive').to_table()
   print(mytab)
   ```
   Calendar_date is the partitioning column.
   
   Results:
   pyarrow.Table
   USER_ID: double
   TRX_CNT: double
   DATE_OF_BIRTH: timestamp[ns]
   **CALENDAR_DATE: string**
