Yes, this would be nice to copy in xarray. I suspect we could implement this in very similar way to what you suggest here.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,620468256

But I might be missing something?

If we make users explicitly open their own Zarr stores, then I think it's best to let them close them, themselves. If we closed them automatically, then they couldn't add their own files into the store outside of xarray.

It would make sense to automatically close stores if they were opened inside `to_zarr()`, e.g., if we had some logic that automatically opened a zip store when the file path ends in `"".zip""`. This would not be a bad idea (small files are quite wasteful on most filesystems), but is not currently the case, as I understand it.

At the very least, we could add a note to the documentation about this.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,620468256
