Although reindex as @dcherian suggested works for cases the dims match the target dims, in cases where the dims don't match, e.g., in the examples of sel: https://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/generated/xarray.DataArray.sel.html. It'd cause error:
`ValueError: Indexer has dimensions ('points',) that are different from that to be indexed along x`

I also would expect that indices that are not within the tolerance would simply be dropped. While it might be nice in some situations, I don't really think that specifying a fill value is needed in order to accomplish this. 

The issue I'm facing with `reindex` is that it doesn't really scale as well as `sel` does, significantly reducing the amount of data I can handle. I would like to humbly suggest that there still might be interest in seeing this functionality.

Unfortunately the testing logs from #4996 have expired so it's not clear why the tests failed for this PR before it was closed.","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,822320976
