It seems like this relaxation is compatible with the refactoring of indexes. Right now, we automatically create 1D indexes for all coordinate variables. The problem with 2D dimensions is that such indexes don't make sense: data.sel(y=3.14)

But maybe we could turn multi-dimensional coordinate variables into multi-indexes? Or no index at all? In any case, we could still do data.isel(y=3) i.e. logical indexing on the dimension axis.
