35262649 MDU6SXNzdWUzNTI2MjY0OQ== 148 API: rename "labeled" and "indexed" 1217238 closed 0   650893 0 2014-06-09T06:17:09Z 2014-06-22T00:44:26Z 2014-06-22T00:44:26Z MEMBER      

I'd like to rename the Dataset/DataArray methods labeled and indexed, so that they are more obviously variants on a theme, similarly to how pandas distinguishes between methods .loc and .iloc (and .at/.iat, etc.). Some options include: 1. Rename indexed to ilabeled. 2. Rename indexed/labeled to isel/sel.

I like option 2 (particularly because it's shorter), but to avoid confusion with the select method, we would need to also rename select/unselect to something else. I would suggest select_vars and drop_vars.
