In another issue I create a simple dataset like so:

python lat = np.random.rand(50000) * 180 - 90 lon = np.random.rand(50000) * 360 - 180 d = xr.Dataset({'latitude':lat, 'longitude':lon})

I expected d to contain two variables (latitude and longitude) with no coordinates. Instead d appears to contain two coordinates and no variables:

In [5]: d Out[5]: <xarray.Dataset> Dimensions: (latitude: 50000, longitude: 50000) Coordinates: * latitude (latitude) float64 -76.0 -84.36 26.69 66.44 -37.85 50.13 ... * longitude (longitude) float64 -148.7 -74.82 18.37 117.7 80.63 12.25 ... Data variables: *empty*

Is this desired behavior?
