Hi Teddy, Yes UnionListWriter currently doesn't support writing decimals into list vector. Basically we are missing APIs like UnionListWriter.decimal() which will return a DecimalWriter(we already have this) and the latter can be used to write decimals in list. I'd suggest you to go ahead and file a JIRA on https://issues.apache.org/.
Please feel free to take it up if you are interested in contributing to Arrow codebase.
