I'm thinking through how difficult it would be to add back-fill method to DataArray (that could be an argument to fillna or a bfill method - that's a separate discussion).

Would this PR help? I'm trying to wrap my head around the options. Thanks

Yes, quite likely. In the current state, it would depend on if you want to back-fill all variables or just data variables (only the later is currently supported).

Either way, the first step is probably to write a function backfill(values, axis) that acts on NumPy arrays.
