Without following the discussion in detail, what is the status here? In particular, I would like to do pointwise selection on multiple 1D coordinates using multidimensional indexer arrays. I can do this with the current isel_points: 1. construct the multidimensional indexers 2. flatten them 3. create a corresponding MultiIndex 4. apply the flattened indexers using isel_points, and assign the multi-index as the new dimension 5. use unstack on the newly created dimension The first three points can be somewhat simplified by instead putting all of the multidimensional indexer into a Dataset and then stack it to create consistent flat versions and their multi-index.

Given this conceptually easy but somewhat tedious procedure, couldn't that be something that could quite easily be implemented into the current isel_points? Would a PR along that direction have a chance of being accepted?
