Description
I have several datasets that include a column with a geojson field, like this dataset
https://recursos-data.buenosaires.gob.ar/ckan2/barrios/barrios.csv
In this case it's not a point, but a Multipolygon
it could be great if you could add and option to import that column, too
BTW, is there some other way to save shapes in a csv file?

Research direction
Start by importing the linked Buenos Aires barrios.csv dataset and inspect how csv2geojson currently handles columns containing GeoJSON. Determine the existing conversion entry point and whether a GeoJSON Multipolygon column can be preserved; done means the option is documented and the resulting output retains the shapes. No test file or source path is named in the issue.
