It would be nice to be able to use dask.compute() for this, by defining a duck type system for dask objects such that xarray objects can participate. (xref https://github.com/dask/dask/issues/700)

I'm not sure what a good api is here, as xarray objects mutate when computed.

Yeah, this is somewhat unfortunate, but convenient (though somewhat obsolete with dask's cachey). Perhaps adding a dedicated .compute() method that does not mutate would be a good idea.
