I'm not opposed to decoding the values that are in tags as part of the rasterio backend. @maaleske, perhaps you can do some research to let us know what types of values the tags method is going to return.

@fmaussion - I'm not entirely opposed to this. It may require a bit of effort to make sure modifying the file object as part of the public API doesn't do nasty things.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,259057144

So a quick workaround for you would simply be:

```python
ds = xr.open_rasterio(file)
ds._file_obj.tags()
```
This makes me wonder if it wouldn't be easier for xarray to make the ``file_obj`` public API and don't care about all the possible special cases...

@shoyer @jhamman thoughts?
