Makes sense. template seems fine.

Thanks for the review @TomAugspurger https://github.com/TomAugspurger

Question on the name template. I think in dask.dataframe and dask.array we might call this meta. Is that keyword already used elsewhere in xarray? template is also a fine name though.

I added the meta kwarg to apply_ufunc so that users could pass that down to dask i.e. that meta = dask's meta = np.ndarray or something like that. So I'd like to avoid reusing meta here where it would exclusively be an xarray object ≠ dask's meta

BUT it seems to me like there's a better name than template. Any ideas?
