In some ways, this is the correct approach. The current constructor pathway: https://github.com/pydata/xarray/blob/main/xarray/backends/h5netcdf_.py#L164 Doesn't provide a user with a catchall-kwargs. I think this would be an acceptable solution. I should say that the the performance of the direct driver is terrible without aligned data: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/2206#issuecomment-1054855769","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1152047670 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/6309#issuecomment-1052386013,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/6309,1052386013,IC_kwDOAMm_X84-uiLd,90008,2022-02-26T17:57:33Z,2022-02-26T17:57:33Z,CONTRIBUTOR,"I have to elaborate that this may be even more important for users that READ the data back alot. Reading with the standard Xarray operands hits other limits, but one limit that it definitely hits is that of the HDF5 driver used.
