Is this intended? It's creating some problems downstream with pandas, but maybe that's a pandas issue?

Note the WRITEABLE : False here:

``` python In [126]: ds=xray.Dataset({'a':xray.DataArray(pd.np.random.rand(5,3))}, coords={'b': xray.DataArray(pd.np.random.rand(5))})

In [127]: ds.to_array('d').b.values.flags Out[127]: C_CONTIGUOUS : True F_CONTIGUOUS : True OWNDATA : False WRITEABLE : False ALIGNED : True UPDATEIFCOPY : False ```

Without the to_array, it's fine:

python In [128]: ds.b.values.flags Out[128]: C_CONTIGUOUS : True F_CONTIGUOUS : True OWNDATA : True WRITEABLE : True ALIGNED : True UPDATEIFCOPY : False
