This type of data access is convenient but sometimes conflicts to the original attributes, e.g. T cannot be accessed like this.

The Dataset T property for transpose should be deprecated -- but that's a separate matter: https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/1232

Can we gradually deprecate this after implementing ipython_key_completions()?

I am hesitant to deprecate this since it is so widely used. But you're right that this serves the main use cases.

An attribute foo can be accessed only by attribute-style, but not __getitem__ style, da[foo].

That's correct. Attribute-style access was always intended as fall-back for convenience purposes, but __getitem__ (for programmatic access) is intentionally stricter.
