Is there any operation in xarray where dimension order matters? If yes, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to allow transposed dimension pass assert_allclose or assert_equal. But even otherwise, I'd find it a bit weird for a "numpy equivalent" function to have:

python xr.testing.assert_allclose(ds1.data, ds2.data) # ok np.testing.assert_allclose(ds1.data.values, ds2.data.values) # fails

What about a check_dim_order option? Also, it would be useful if information about non-matching dimension order was shown more explicitly in the assertion error message.
