Is there a way to return the data variables that match a specified standard_name?

I came up with this, but maybe the functionality already exists or there is a better way.

def get_std_name_vars(ds,std_name): return {k: v for k, v in ds.data_vars.iteritems() if 'standard_name' in v.attrs.keys() and std_name in v.standard_name}

as in this example: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/rsignell-usgs/5b263906e92ce47bf05e
