It should be possible to safely merge together variables with values [NaN, 1, 2] and [0, 1, NaN] by using methods such as combine_first (which should also be OK with conflicting values, like the pandas method) and merge (which should raise if values conflict).

See this stackoverflow post for a merge example: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36731870/how-to-merge-xarray-datasets-with-conflicting-coordinates
