Is the aim to reduce the number of metadata files hanging around?

This is also part of my goal. I think all the metadata can be stored internally to zarr via attributes. There just have to be some "special" attributes that xarray hides from the user. This is the same as h5netcdf.

@alimanfoo suggested this should be possible in that earlier thread:

Specifically I'm wondering if this could all be stored as attributes on the Zarr array, with some conventions for special xarray attribute names?
