I would be interested to know if registering an accessor works for you, which was designed for exactly this sort of use case: http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/internals.html#extending-xarray

The reason why I chose not to just use the qualified name is that xarray.core.dataset.Dataset is a little long, and also points users in the direction of private API.

But I'd be happy to use qualified names for subclasses not builtin to xarray. Currently you can find this logic in dataset_repr and array_repr at the bottom of core/formatting.py. You'd just need to write a helper function to calculate the class name rather than our current use of u'<xarray.%s>' % type(ds).__name__.
