`hv` would probably be too short for a good name (but of course this is totally up to you), especially because I can imagine people using `hv` for a variables name, which can also be accessed via attributes.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,327725925

So obviously I am a big 👍  on this integration.

I agree the accessor is the best option for now, but I have no strong opinions about the name of the accessor.

Some features I would like to see are things that go beyond the plotting capabilities associated with the matplotlib engine. For example:

- Automatic generation of DynamicMaps. Say I have a DataArray with dimensions ('time', 'lat', 'lon'); I should be able to say `da.hv.plot(kdims=['lat', 'lon']` and have `time` become a dynamic selector.
- To go along with the above, lazy loading of dask-backed arrays
- Intelligent [faceting](http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/plotting.html#faceting) which automatically links the facet kdims
- Plotting not just of DataArrays but Datasets. The variable itself could become a dynamic selector in a dropdown menu. Basically, I just want to say `ds.hv.plot()` and have holoviews provide all the options I need to explore the dataset interactively. Kind of like how [ncview](http://meteora.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncview_home_page.html) works. At that point, we won't need ncview anymore.
- Options for projections, coastlines, etc. associated with geoviews

I also think this would be a good use case for a new accessor, perhaps `DataArray.holoplot()` mirroring our preference for accessor names to match projects.

An `engine` keyword/option could also be viable, but would require more coordination (e.g., figuring out the plotting interface, which seems to have stalled that plotting issue). That said, if pandas figured out a way to do this I'm sure we would be happy to copy it.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,327725925
