I think we could do basic indexes with units after steps (1) and (2) in the big index refactor plan: https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/1603#issuecomment-511126208

At that point, indexes will be something that are propagated entirely separately from arrays. So even if the index will get cast into a pandas.index, the corresponding coordinate array will stick around.

The next level of support would be "unit array indexing", e.g., ds.sel(x=1000*u.meters). This will require an API for letting you define your own index classes -- something that we definitely want in the long term but will take more work to realize.
