@shoyer - the idea of the coordinates convention is that we all ready know the x/y coordinate names. So we shouldn't need to supply them like this: ds.T.plot.contourf('lat', 'lon'). I'm thinking it would be better to store the coord names coming from https://github.com/xray/xray/blob/master/xray/conventions.py#L882 in each DataArray. Maybe a DataArray.coord_keys = ('xc', 'yc') attribute is in order? Currently, we aren't really using the coordinates attribute in its intended way.

In the plotting logic, we should just search to see if coord_keys is not None before passing the coordinates to the plotting method.
