Ian Cook updated ARROW-15731:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
Currently Arrow joins with data that contain a list column errors, even when 
the list column is not a join key. Here's an example using the R bindings:
{code:java}
library(arrow)
library(dplyr)

jedi <- data.frame(name = c("C-3PO", "Luke Skywalker"),
                   jedi = c(FALSE, TRUE))

arrow_table(starwars) %>%
  left_join(jedi) %>%
  collect()
#> Error in `handle_csv_read_error()`:
#> ! Invalid: Data type list<item: string> is not supported in join non-key 
field
{code}
The ability to join would be a useful enhancement for workflows with tabular 
data where list columns can be common, and for geospatial workflows where 
geometry columns are stored as {{list}} or {{fixed_size_list}} (thanks 
[~paleolimbot] for mentioning that use case).
