I chose the name as `_repr_inline_` because that seemed the most straight-forward but didn't think too deeply about this. If we do change the name I would like to keep the name as `_repr_*_`. Maybe `_repr_array_inline_`?

However, as I said I don't think it matters if the name is reused in a different context, as long as that is not incompatible with our use: we only care about arrays. Which is why I would slightly prefer the second alternative (a generic name and a parameter which is interpreted depending on the context). The only issue I have is that it's usually not a good idea to extend the API unless there's a specific need so I'm somewhat reluctant to add that parameter.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,896002237

So if I saw that without knowing the context of how it is used in xarray, it would surprise me that it's supposed to omit `shape` and `dtype`, which are otherwise essential parts of the repr.

Other possibilities:
- Give the protocol a namespace, like `_xarray_repr_inline_` to make it clearer that it's for Xarray's use.
- Maybe add an `omit` argument, e.g., `obj._repr_inline_(max_width, skip=['dtype', 'shape'])`. Attributes in `skip` are already represented elsewhere and can be skipped if desired.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,896002237

Do you have anything in mind for that?

I'm also not quite sure I get your point about the name: `xarray` currently does not allow wrapping anything other than duck arrays so I'm inclined to just not worry about this until that changes or someone else wants to use that name for a different purpose.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,896002237
