I've run into the same problem and have been looking at the netCDF backend. A solution does not seem to be so easy as to open and close the file in the __getitem__ method since this closes the file also for any other access e.g. attributes like shape or dtype.

Short of decorating all the functions of the netCDF4 package I can not think of a workable solution to this. But maybe I'm overlooking something fundamental.
