in using a fill_value is that the indexing has to modify the data ( insert e.g. -999) and also 'invent' a new coordinate point ( here 40).

This seems totally doable though.

One fill_value might not fit to all data arrays

In quite a few functions, fill_value can be a dict mapping variable name to a value so this is workable.

Let's see what others think.
