Could you verify the above example, please?

The code looks fine, and I get the same result when I run it with this PR.

Your fix in https://github.com/kmuehlbauer/xarray/tree/preserve-vlen-string-dtype changes the metadata so it is correctly preserved as metadata: {'element_type': <class 'str'>}.

I feel less qualified to evaluate the impact of the netcdf4 fix.
