We're working towards supporting more PyArrow data types in #2800. I think it makes sense to explicitly add it as an optional dependency, just like what we're doing to contexily, geopandas, ipython and rioxarray.
FYI, we already mentioned
pyarrow
as an optional dependency on the PyGMT Ecosystem page and recommended to install it in #3506.This PR supersedes some changes in PR #2933.
